The Tax Factor – Episode 86 - Spending Promises, HMRC Service Struggles and when is dance tuition Vatable?
This week on The Tax Factor, Ola Adigun and Robert Salter ask where the money might come from to fund the major Government spending pledges we've been hearing about. With little room for manoeuvre, Robert suggests the Chancellor may revisit measures such as fuel duty, car benefits, and road tax and could there be a U-turn on previous manifesto commitments? Meanwhile, HMRC continues to battle poor public perception. Will the new outsourcing plans improve customer service, or just add to the frustration? And in a less-than-rhythmic move, HMRC wins a tribunal ruling to impose VAT on personal dance tuition - a decision that could have broader implications for education providers.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
