Rachel Reeves's Budget risks creating one of the most "anti-growth" tax systems in the developed world, according to a major new analysis.A joint study by the US Tax Foundation and the UK's Centre for Policy Studies (CPS) shows that Britain would have one of the least competitive tax systems in the OECD if the Chancellor launches a capital gains tax raid, as is widely expected.The last government's measures have already pushed the UK down to 30th place out of 38 OECD countries on competitiveness, according to the latest annual ranking produced by the Tax Foundation and published on Monday

Doomed Kiev Regime Is Dancing On Head Of Pin

Support SouthFront


While his army is ground down on the battlefields, Zelensky continues traveling around NATO in an attempt to ignite the fading fire of support from their Western patrons. Faced with imminent strategic defeats, Kiev is sweating away, writing peace plans that are cut off from reality then threatening Europe with nuclear catastrophe. Meanwhile, Moscow and its coldblooded army steadily continue their job, approaching new victories.

On the night of October 18, the Ukrainian rear came under another wave of Russian strikes aimed to undermine the capabilities of the Air Force of Ukraine. A series of precision strikes hit Ukrainian airfields in the Sumy, Zhitomir, Rivne, Volyn, Poltava and Khmelnitsk regions. Ukrainian aircraft, warehouses with drones, hangars with military equipment, military workshops and navigation systems from NATO were destroyed. More Russian strikes destroyed Ukrainian military, energy and industrial infrastructure facilities throughout the country. Another series of explosions thundered in the capital Kiev for the second night in a row.

In their turn, the Armed Forces of Ukraine attempted drone and missile strikes in the Russian western rear regions and in Crimea but failed to achieve any results.

Kiev lost another night strike battle and is losing control of more and more territories on the ground.

In the Russian Kursk region, the Ukrainian grouping surrounded near Lyubimovka is trying to escape through the fields under heavy Russian fire. No Ukrainian reinforcements thrown in the area helped to unblock the cauldron.

Russian forces broke through the Ukrainian defenses in the area of Chasov Yar. As a result of a series of successful attacks, soldiers of the Russian army took control of the territory of the Blok-9 mine, located on the southern outskirts of the city. Active assault operations with support of groups on armored vehicles also continue on the city streets. Russians advanced in the Oktyabrsky district.

Ukrainian military observers complain that the situation in Chasov Yar is getting worse every day. The Ukrainian garrison is exhausted by prolonged fighting and there is not enough ammunition. In addition, their command in Kiev weakened their defense by removing some of the units of the 80th separate airborne assault brigade from this area and sent them to the Kursk region.

Ukrainian positions are also deteriorating in other directions. On October 18th, the Russian Defense Ministry confirmed control of Maksimilyanovka. The assault on Kurakhovo may begin in the coming days. The Russians are also expanding their zone of control around the large Ukrainian stronghold of Selidovo and approaching Kupyansk on the northern front.

Taking into account the balance of power on all frontlines, the regime in Kiev is doomed to defeat. Thus, Zelensky is crying out loud trying to change the rules of the game. In effect he is trying to drag NATO into war.

Because they’ve made a business out of it more than any other country and the impact is world-wide because they own the internet and get a % of everything we do.

Given the evangelistic nature of the tech firms in thinking they are changing the world for the better, its gross hypocrisy to spend so much effort avoiding tax. They can also afford to tie up governments in knots with legalese and creative accounting.

They’re not just being tax-efficient, they shift money around by attributing profits and revenue in one company to a subsidiary or owner in another (tax haven) so the source country missed out on tax. Thats just one of many manoeuvres.

Meanwhile the smaller the business the less they can afford to just setup something in a tax haven and then have the resources to defend that against governments. Unfortunately our ex and some current politicians have consultancies or jobs with the same crowd of accountants and VC businesses that work for the big US corporations.

We took back control from the wrong place.

The state will be granted powers to take money directly out of bank accounts and wage slips as part of a crackdown on benefit fraud.

Private companies such as airlines will also be compelled to hand over information to investigators, under plans being drawn up by ministers for the biggest overhaul to the department’s powers in 20 years.

Liz Kendall, the Work and Pensions Secretary, said it was “absurd” that her department’s powers had become so outdated, with inspectors struggling to “keep pace” with complex methods employed by fraudsters.
If only ALL LAs had signed up to the verification frame work which required claimants to provide bank statements much of the wrongly categorised fraud ops should have been avoided - but it was not mandatory,
Doubt Kendall knows anything about benefits and its regs!

Streeting's pipedream.
The Government will also detail plans for a network of neighbourhood health centres, placing GPs, nurses, physiotherapists and health visitors all under one roof to stop people being passed “from pillar to post”.

The changes will also see a single patient record with all information on the NHS App.

Mr Sreeting said: “The challenges for the NHS are stark, but the opportunities are huge. Modern technology will transform how patients are cared for, making their lives infinitely easier and the NHS fit for the future.

“At the same time, we will protect what patients want from the NHS – the family doctor relationship, free healthcare at the point of need, and shorter waits for appointments. Our 10-year health plan will preserve the NHS’s traditional values in a modern setting.
The change from analogue to digital single record will take a decade at least.
Anyone who has been inside a hospital will have seen paper records being carried from A to B and to C etc by an army of clerical ppl and nobody has managed to get to the point of creating one digital record.
Who closed the cottage hospitals and built new ones with PFI? Labour?
Promises just words again.
Imagine a million more calls - why does my watch bleep - why does my smart watch not give me the answer? And at what cost?
