Trouble With The Natives.

Shout 99 sent me an e-mail today, they have published my comments about Taxation, Politics and fraudulent Political activity.

It is a shame really, because I have now posted it here and on BBC, Action Network. And I have e-mailed it to other Websites. The way things are going, "we are living in interesting times", as the Chinese might say. Years ago, I was based in Singapore and I began to pick up a few of the Chinese words and phrases but the only ones that I remember are the rude ones. Funny that, I can swear in quite a lot of different languages.

Back to the Politics. I was reading Quentin Letts, Parliamentary column in the Daily Mail today, he has certainly marked John Huttons card. The Secretary of State for Work and Pensions has one of the biggest budgets, if not The biggest Budget, of any Government Department. It stands to reason, he is for the biggest Drop when the time comes. All told, I think his Budget is in the region of £150 Billion, and I know some four or five years ago, the misuse, failed management and outright Fraud was responsible for the "loss" of £12 Billion. The Committee of MPs, responsible for reporting these affairs, reduced the Figure to £8 Billion, and the report is in the House of Commons Library. And it has, or was, some years since an Audit gave the DSS or DoHSS, a clean bill of health.

Enough for now. Back soon. Regards, AxetheTax/WatchKeeper.

My Usual Sunday Rant.

I tried to post this letter on "Shout 99" last night at 20:54 and I left it "awaiting Moderation". It seems it was rejected. I printed out a copy because I half expected the elbow. Here goes.

Public Finances and Destructive Taxation

Today, it is perfectly legal and possible for all payers of Direct Taxation to ignore all demands from Central Government. The only Taxation you are obliged to pay is the Local Authority or Council Tax.


It is a very simple manoeuvre to register your working activity off-shore and to by-pass HMRC, just as a great many rich and very rich people do already. Is it Philip Green who has recently transferred two or three Billion Pounds out of the Country free of Taxation? Don't get me wrong, I don't object, I just want to make the same "concessions" available to one and all.

I have set out the framework for the use of any Employee or Employer who wants to change the way they pay their Taxation and made arrangements for cash to be available from ATMs or over the counter at your local Bank branch. How to pay your Utility bills and Council Tax without breaching any regulation or Law. And funding is available to put this into practice once demand justifies the cost.

I am not suggesting that you stop paying Taxation, just that you, the poor bloody Taxpayer now have your say and tell Westminster What They Can Have, full stop.

Again, this is not a commercial venture. I am 72 years old and I thought I had seen it all before. That is until this awful lot of make-believe Politicians picked up the pieces after the Tories self-destruction. I called them Politically corrupt, on one Website and was reprimanded in some Feedback because of it. I replied that if these members of the Government and the Cabinet, were not corrupted, the alternative was even worse to contemplate, They were just plain Stupid and had not the fainest idea of what they were doing. Take your choice.

Now, let me start that last paragraph again, I lost my way somewhat. I'm suggesting that you change to a system of Taxation that is very simple, where there is No room for creative accounting. You have a Tax threshold of £400 each week, and earned income over and above that is Taxed at a rate of 10%. I have excluded unearned income because the Pensions fiasco has to be accounted for.

Personally, I do not pay any Direct Taxation, but I do object to what is going on and the enormous amounts of money being spent on this Administration alone. This Government has printed so much money in the last few years, some people are drowning in it. We are now in a position where money no longer earns its keep. And now they have discovered that, for the most part, their investments in the Far East are not paying a return that covers inflation. If you look on the BBC Action Network, for the 1st. January 2006, and again, 1st. January 2007 you will see that I had April this year penciled in as the beginning of the "melt down". What happens now is that excess money will be invested in "Government" Bonds, and again, Taxation pays the returns. So you see, whichever way the Economy Fails, you the Taxpayer is the Victim, you pick up the pieces and pay the bills.

As things stand, you should take charge of of Taxation. You should tell the Venal Corruptible Politicians just how much Money they can have. Change the system. It is your Democracy, your Money and it is your Country, they are on trust to look after your Interests. What I see happening today, is not in the Interest of the British People. So, Change the Bloody System before it is too late.

And if you think about that, you will realise that there is no reason whatsoever, why you should not form your own small local Party and put yourself, or A N Other up for Election to your County, District or Local Authority. You could then develop the Economy on a local system of Taxation and By-Laws. Including "Planning Law".

To finish I want to say that there are some Organisations who are sympathetic to the general idea of this change, if not any of the detail. But my intention is that the cost of operating this system of collection, will be just £26. for each member per annum, 50 pence a week.

That is my basis to start from. Why put up with that lot of Bloody nonsense from Westminster and Whitehall, you don't have to you know. Regards, AxetheTax WatchKeeper.
