The tax gap (total tax avoided and evaded) for the UK in 2023-20224 was £46,800,000,000.
It's not teachers or nurses avoiding tax.
It's not people on PIP.
It's not asylum seekers.
It's the rich. It's the billionaires. Its Nigel Farage. It's the Tories.
Please do not embarrass Farage by reposting his 'Happy Birthday Mr President' tweet. Be careful not to draw attention to the fact that he's holding a bottle of Trump wine, it would make him look like a fawning sycophant, and we wouldn't want to do that ... would we?
Never forget how the Tories gifted billions of YOUR money to their friends via VIP lanes, test and trace, HS2, hotels for migrants, caused 20,000 + avoidable Covid deaths and made us all poorer by Brexit, Truss budget and austerity. More corrupt than any banana republic.

BAN TROPHY HUNTING NOW!
Another cockroach abusing animals.
A sadistic bully that horrifically tortured his dog to death by beating and burning it has avoided a prison sentence.
Levi Balmer inflicted severe injuries and caused a dog significant pain and distress has been handed a 10-year ban on owning, keeping and taking charge of dogs.
The 20-year-old, from Rutherglen, subjected the Cane Corso cross American Bully puppy to such severe abuse she died of pain-related stress.
Balmer pleaded guilty at Glasgow Sheriff Court to a charge of causing 16-week-old Mabel unnecessary physical and mental suffering which left her in such severe pain that she passed away
Balmer was also handed a 162 hours community payback order and placed under 12 months social work supervision.
Leaving her with second and third-degree burns
Balmer held Mabel on a hot surface in his Rutherglen flat leaving her with second and third-degree burns.
He also physically attacked or beat Mabel and fractured a tooth.
The dog suffered scalding to its face, hind limbs, tail and pads, was bleeding from a wound to her shoulder, had blood from her nose and mouth, lameness, swelling and was in acute pain prior to death.
On Christmas Eve 2024, a call was made to the Scottish SPCA Animal Helpline by a vet who was concerned about the condition a deceased dog had been brought into the practice in.
The vet explained Mabel had been brought into the practice multiple times before with serious injuries and that there were suspicions, she had suffered significant abuse.
A Scottish SPCA Inspector spoke to Levi Balmer on the phone, and an investigation was launched into the cause of Mabel’s death.
The Scottish SPCA requested permission for Mabel’s body to be uplifted in order to carry out a post-mortem, which Balmer agreed to. On the same day, the Inspector attended the vet to see Mabel’s body.
The image of Mabel still follows me to this day
The Scottish SPCA Inspector said: “The image of Mabel still follows me to this day. It was quickly evident she has been victim of extreme abuse and cruelty during her short life; her wounds were so severe. It is one of the most distressing cases I have ever dealt with.”
On November 26 2024, Mabel was brought into the vet after coming into contact with bleach.
Balmer explained to the vet that he had washed Mabel in the bath two days earlier, forgetting that he had put bleach in the bath to clean it previously that day.
On December 11 2024, Mabel was examined by another vet due to a complaint of her being lethargic, urinating blood and a lump being found.
Balmer explained that he had tripped and fallen on her earlier that day. A number of teeth were chipped or missing and she had blood in her urine which was indicative of a UTI.
Mabel was taken to the vet again on December 21, 2024, as an emergency appointment due to a history of non-weight bearing lameness, losing teeth, facial swelling and struggle to eat.
Balmer reported that Mabel seemed “injury-prone and clumsy” and said that she had “crashed into” her dog crate, resulting in a small wound on her shoulder.
Due to suspicion over her injuries, another appointment was booked in for December 27 to examine Mabel further – but she was presented as dead on arrival to the vet on December 24.
During the post-mortem examination, it was concluded that the pattern of injury was most consistent with a scald injury and that Mabel had been burnt deliberately.
Evidence also showed the fractures had been caused by a deliberate attack rather than an accident.

Sarah doesn't want to see black or Asian people on her TV.
She said: “It drives me mad seeing adverts full of black and Asian people.”
This sort of racism is abhorrent, and she must resign.
