Chatting CGT with @GBNEWS. Its a short clip and obv this is a massive subject with nuances & complications, but in essence whether 4 property professionals, business owners or entrepreneurs, punitive CGT taxation is a dissuasive, negative tax which damages growth in the long run.

@XibanyaR @GBNEWS @SophieReaper 😆

@BlackRaven999 @saltytower @GBNEWS @SophieReaper We discussed those things also, bear in mind there's a limit to what can fit in these small clips. I agree with you about CGT being a punitive, dissuasive tax.

[Sian Astley @Moregeous]

@tollanlochain @GBNEWS @SophieReaper Already do all of those things, it's not about just me tho I understand that how it might come across. I gen believe that punitive CGT discourages the business builders / entrepreneurs / self employed. Agree with you on current state of UK housing in relation to the avo analogy.

[Sian Astley @Moregeous]

@saltytower @GBNEWS @SophieReaper Too simplistic. Punitive taxation on entrepreneurialism & business building simply dissuades it, & encourages tax avoidance. Also CGT is a fixed rate, you don't ever pay a full 40% for eg on your whole income. Also landlords are taxed differently than every other buisness, unfair

[Sian Astley @Moregeous]

@jonnyvjames @GBNEWS @SophieReaper The massive expansion of buy to let, coupled with the wholesale cheap selling off of social homes, coupled with massive immigration has been an absolute disaster for the UK property market. BTW for 20yrs I have supported jobs in our local economy, trades & purchases.

[Sian Astley @Moregeous]

@StevenBusby13 @GBNEWS @SophieReaper That, that and once again that. Social housing failures and yet the PRS is attacked, but only smaller landlords, the big boys will be just fine.

[Sian Astley @Moregeous]

@JasonWMTT @GBNEWS @SophieReaper You might need to do some more research Jason. George Osbourne's taxation changes are designed to ensure small landlords in the PRS don't make a profit anymore, they're keeping that privilege for the large build-to-letters and corporations. Capitalism at it's worst.
