Going to try that when I do my tax return next month

If you need some help filling them in you can always refer to Sunak's who has just published his on gov.uk. Gotta love the timing - sharing them while Johnson is being grilled.

Honestly the Johnson grilling is great they ain't gonna let him get away with ****.

It was good that the committee made clear that they weren't relying on the Sue Gray report and didn't refer to it throughout. He can't hit them with that stick now.

He's been using it as a defence...

I would just like them to ask one question.

To say you didn't realise the rules had been broken either means you have to be lying or you're stupid. Which is it?

 

[General Melchett]

And he finishes things off with one final lie by saying "I've enjoyed our discussion".

The fact he can't hit them with that stick doesn't mean he'll stop swinging it. He's like an angry chimp with no depth perception.

Also interesting that he believes leaving drinks, Friday drinks and birthday drinks were work related and essential during lockdowns, but people visiting sick relatives or going to relatives funerals wasn't.

It's desperate stuff. His argument was that he needed to motivate his staff and keep morale up. Pathetic. I also saw that he was conveniently throwing in words like "where possible" when talking about following the rules.

Anyone else received their polling card for the May local elections? Photo ID required to vote.

Rishi Sunak saved £300,000 in tax thanks to cut he voted for in 2016

PM’s tax bill would have been higher had Tories not cut top capital gains rate

www.theguardian.com

So likely sold shares at a massive profit rather than residential property.

I don't have a massive problem with him being wealthy, making big money and using private health insurance. As long as he hasn't broken the law, abused his position and works his arse off trying to make people's lives better. I imagine some of Johnson's sleazy dealings are far more shady (Wallpaper gate, £800k loan facilitated by the head of the BBC he appointed, PPE contracts etc. etc.)

Man's tax bill affected by tax policy is a rather interesting idea for an article

I like the "who believes Boris Johnson was telling the truth yesterday"
all hands stay down
"hehe"
"wow"
"'ckin 'ell"
