Why all the fuss about Rishi's wife?

[Mottie]

I see the concept of fair taxation is alien to mottie.

I see the concept of accepting the wealthy that abide by the rules is alien to Tory-hating, jealous racist JohnD.

 

[Notch7]

the wealthy that abide by the rules

the wealthy bankroll the Conservative party to ensure their policies mean the wealthy keep their wealth.

and their billionaire owning newspapers divert the attention onto “benefit scroungers”, foreigners, the EU.

Yeah, yeah, you said. What you didn't say was an answer to the question I asked you in post #15 in this thread. Go on, have a go.

I don't really care that the UK does not get to tax her on her earnings made in another country,

TBH I think that's actually fair.
The important thing though is has she had her vaccinations and how did she vote for Brexit?

 

[fillyboy]

LOL More from BBC, this time it's her fathers business.

It's always been her fathers business, Infosys, she has shares worth about 200 mil.

**** me John there's no flies on the BBC.

It's interesting how the people opposed to fair taxation search wildly for irrelevant nonsense in the hope that they might make their position look sensible.

she's a citizen of India, India does not allow their citizens to hold dual nationality therefore, she can't be a British person.

Which government was that and when? In any case, she's abiding by them.

perfectly legal.

No. She is married to a minister of a party that you don't like

often it comes down to envy

I say "burn the witch"

not the right colour

Its only a recognised scandal by the Tory haters, the left wing media and those jealous of success.

The Indian constitution doesn't allow dual nationality.

a few of us are non compos mentis

Hate of the Tories, jealousy and racism.

you are a failure.

none of these have any bearing on the fact that the UK has carefully constructed a tax system that allows rich people, living in the UK, to dodge tax on their wealth, income and inheritances.

11) Please do not use excessive quoting in your posts.

 

[transam]

Don’t see what all the fuss is about

his missis is Indian and earns a few squid from a company owned by her father in India

Transam does not really give a ***t tbh

unless of course there is some thing in it for me

Im not playing your whataboutery games

the Conservative party is a party for the rich

whether there are other parties that offer alternatives is not relevant

I bet the migrant horde of 400 a day crossing the channel illegally for free stuff is a bigger drain on the UK finances than some woman's potential tax bill that is not even owed in the first place!

Or if the UK is hard up, they could stop giving aid to a certain woman's domicile - the same country that has a space programme, buys nuclear submarines ... and supports a country and leader that is committing genocide.

Seemed like a perfectly reasonable question to me Notch.

Remind me again who dished out all the PFI contracts to the private sector, so as to garner votes and look good to the electorate that they were "doing something"? The same contracts that we are all paying billions for for the foreseeable future.

I'd hold fire on that. There were more complications at the Indian end of things due to her holding UK citizenship. Some source or the other will explain eventually.

She doesn't hold British citizenship, she still has Indian citizenship, the Indian constitution does not allow dual citizenship so she would have to give up her Indian citizenship. She hasn't.

How much tax have you avoided by paying into your pension scheme?

Are you rich?
