The exemptions are interesting.

Gonna be a lot of kiddy on property sales.

Looks like you are allowed to go if putting a property on the market.

Only saw it briefly, you can get an exemption from the fine if you want to go over and buy a caravan, then you can go back over and prepare it for rental a few months later, repeat that process every year. Prices of property in Spain will skyrocket

The SNP aren't planning a referendum until at least summer 2022 anyway so you will have your wish regardless.

If there is a referendum and the pro independence supporters win a majority there is no guarantee that an independent Scotland will gain entry to the ‘promised land’ known as the EU.
If an independent Scotland is able to join the EU io will be operating on a different time zone from the rest of the U.K. for a minimum of five months per year.

Joining EFTA/EEA will be the main priority, this gives iScotland access to rUK markets on the same terms as every other nation in the economic area. If independence ever did happen, rUK would be back in the Single Market anyway, they can't keep putting off the bad stuff about brexit. The time thing isn't really a big issue these days, Scotland will want to align with the EU anyway.

Did UK have to comply with European time when it was in the EU?

Income tax dosent really effect me, I pay less than £400 a year....if they want to make that £450 it doesnae really matter.

I just think people shud keep as much as possible of what they earn.

Don't know much about Nz....sorry.

£400 a year, that’s an amount that would give self employed taxi drivers sleepless nights 😜

I never interviewed a taxi driver who earned more than 12k......seemed to be the standard figure.

Being such a positive chap I used to find their moaning intolerable.😉

Standard - you earn the minimum you need to earn to pay NI and the rest comes as dividends as I'm sure you know. Bit of a fleg for you when it comes to furlough mind.

Taxi drivers, without exception, moan like **** and blether ****e - excellent additional talents for a 'professional driver' :) to have.
