@RupertLowe10 Add 0% CGT on Bitcoin and you have my vote and millions of others from our community guaranteed. Not to mention the amount of business that will generate from companies that will want to invest here under those circumstances.

Sole traders. Micro businesses with one or two employees. Freelancers. Plumbers. Electricians. Hairdressers. Mechanics. Accountants. Gardeners. Whatever it is, whoever they are. These are the workers that keep the economy going. Not the big global corporates. Politicians, and those devising the rules, simply do not understand how these people live. Nobody ever even talks about the one or two people operations in Westminster. Saturday morning in the bureaucrat’s world? Friday working from home, so nice easy day to finish off the week. Laptop closed by 15.00. Phone off for the weekend, not a care in the world. Life is sweet. Holiday coming up, mortgage comfortable, pension growing nicely. The sole trader? Getting invoices and paperwork sorted at 6am before the children wake up. Chasing up late payments. Weighing up whether to do that last minute emergency call out, or spend time with the kids on a Saturday. Getting the diary sorted for next week. Phone goes and goes all weekend. It is never-ending. It does not stop. It’s two different worlds honestly. The issue is that the latter entirely funds the former, and the former is hellbent on making life as difficult as possible for productive Britain. I want to be really clear about what Restore Britain would do. Two things. Crush parasitic Britain. Unleash productive Britain. First. Scrap IR35. It has created years of confusion, fear and chaos for contractors and small operators. It has pushed countless self-employed people into pointless paperwork and rigid inflexibility. Doesn’t work. It’s a right pain in the arse for millions. Scrap it. Second, we will double the VAT threshold. The current threshold traps thousands of small businesses just as they begin to grow. Many deliberately stop expanding to avoid the enormous administrative burden of VAT and the brutal cost hikes which drive demand away. The evidence of is obvious. Thousands hover just below the threshold, refusing to grow, hire or pay more tax. It is ABSURD. Restore Britain would double the VAT threshold so small businesses can grow without being punished for success. This is absolutely necessary. An important one - we would dramatically simplify the tax system for sole traders and micro-businesses (and everyone else, but that's separate). Instead of forcing small operators through pages of complicated accounting rules designed for large corporations, we will introduce a far simplified tax regime for businesses below a certain size. Less paperwork, fewer forms, clearer rules. More money for them, less for the accountants and parasitic professional class. Sounds like a good deal, doesn’t it? Next. We will end the endless culture of inspections and bureaucratic interference from the bureaucrats. Too many small businesses now live in fear of accidental breaches - whether it’s health and safety nonsense, employment law complexity, ridiculous data laws or constantly changing compliance requirements. The stress is immense. If you are a sole trader or micro-business acting in good faith, the system should support you, not threaten you. Restore Britain will free them from endless regulatory suffocation. The mental health release on that is worth it alone. Means a lot to me, this one. Restore Britain will make it easier for tradespeople to hire apprentices. This is important. One of the biggest problems small businesses face is bringing in the next generation. The current system is too complicated, too expensive and too rigid for small firms. Restore Britain will introduce simple, flexible apprenticeship schemes designed specifically for small businesses and trades. Up next, we will simplify planning and licensing rules. For small builders, tradespeople and contractors - planning restrictions and local bureaucracy can delay work for months and add unnecessary costs. I detest planning departments more than I can describe in language appropriate for a Saturday morning. These jumped-up empire-building little runts running councils across Britain will have their power stripped away from them. We will let people do business, we will let business owners run their businesses without the sneering council worker’s constant box ticking. Not complicated. We will restore respect for the self-employed. Look at how they were treated during lockdown. Like dirt. Entirely abandoned whilst others were paid to do nothing. That must be addressed, and they must be compensated. The excluded must finally be recognised. That wrong must be rectified. Under a Restore Britain Government, their efforts will be appreciated, celebrated and most importantly? Rewarded. This is the key point. Let’s not pretend otherwise. The five golden rules of business. What’s in it for me? We will radically slash tax and raise thresholds. Tax on dividends would be hacked down so that success pays. More work, pays. Effort, pays. If the electrician does that last minute job on a Saturday, it will be worth their time. They will be rewarded, not HMRC. Restore Britain will slash the bureaucracy, simplify the rules, cut the taxes. We will give small businesses the freedom they need to thrive, to support their families and to succeed. Parasitic Britain will end. Sole traders and micro businesses finally have a political party that will fight for them. Restore Britain.

@QingBankse @RupertLowe10 🤣🤣🤣 our roads are worse than Haiti’s. I know, I’ve been there.

Your Argument Romanticizes Small Businesses While Pretending The Entire State Is Just “Parasitic Britain.” Sole Traders And Tradespeople Absolutely Matter To The Economy, But So Do Public Services, Infrastructure, Courts, Education Systems, And Health Services That Those Same Businesses Depend On Every Day. Roads Don’t Maintain Themselves, Contracts Aren’t Enforced By Wishful Thinking, And Markets Don’t Function Without Regulation. Scrapping Rules Like IR35 Or Slashing Oversight Without Clear Safeguards Risks Creating Tax Avoidance And Worker Exploitation Problems That The System Was Designed To Prevent. Supporting Small Businesses Is Important, But Turning It Into A Story Of “Productive Britain Versus Everyone Else” Ignores The Reality That A Modern Economy Works Because Both Private Enterprise And Public Institutions Function Together.

@pete_rizzo_ Not sure how game changing it is if they’re only making 100 pieces?

@Wildeye420 @PeterMcCormack @_DannyKnowles Danny’s a great interviewer. Saylor was the ignorant one on this show. He’s great at talking and going round in circles but won’t listen to the interviewer’s questions. Danny also worked his arse off on WBD for years before taking it over. That’s called progression, not nepotism

@PeterMcCormack @_DannyKnowles Bro, Danny is cooked He is not a good interviewer “Nepotism” is the only reason he runs that show. If he starts from scratch, he doesn’t make it No offense to him. More a reflection of your ability How are the numbers lately? I know I quit listening

.@_DannyKnowles has singlehandedly restored Bitcoin Twitter.

@UncleEarlJ @s_cullinan @JamesMelville Exactly right, Uncle Earl

@s_cullinan @JamesMelville Miliband was arguing that the tax rate charged in Britain does not affect the international price of oil. The reporter was arguing about the price people pay at the pump. I think Miliband knows that and was being disingenuous.

Ed Miliband’s response here is absolutely shocking. Economic illiteracy. His net zero delusions are costing Britain jobs, money and energy security.

@elliotchalmers @BitcoinSurrey @MyFirstBitcoin_ 👏🏽

Last week I had the pleasure of speaking on a panel at a Bitcoin event in Surrey, @BitcoinSurrey. It was a brilliant opportunity to discuss why Bitcoin literacy and Austrian economics matter in education, the amazing work of @MyFirstBitcoin_, and how we’re planning to integrate these transformative concepts into the curriculum at Lomond School. I’m grateful for the conversations and the energy in the room. Thank you to James Dewar ACMA for taking the time to meet with me beforehand and share his experience teaching Bitcoin, as well as his and the other panel members’ passionate views on how it can change lives. @Bitcoinshire @Lomondlife #Bitcoin #BitcoinSurrey

@jack @Square Hey Jack, this is great! 👏🏽 Does it work on your UK POS devices? One issue I see, how do we get mass adoption of people worldwide to use their BTC for payments if we have to work out whether there is a capital gain (or not) on every transaction we do?

our sellers can now receive btc to btc, btc to fiat, fiat to btc, or fiat to fiat.

@PeterMcCormack @CheatCodeCon @LynAldenContact @jackmallers Can’t wait!! 💪🏽

@methodman13 @PeterMcCormack @CheatCodeCon @LynAldenContact @jackmallers Pretty easy if you’re driving from Heathrow AirPort 👍🏽

@PeterMcCormack @CheatCodeCon @LynAldenContact @jackmallers If I rent a car in London and drive to Bedford, as someone from Los Angeles, is it "easy".

@aspenfash @PeterMcCormack Whoever said you have to have one or more BTC? Buying Bitcoin is not a get rich quick scheme. Life changing money doesn’t happen overnight, as Pete says, it happens by being patient. That’s the lesson now being learned by these people gambling their money away by trading.

To those who have said they have lost their entire life savings this week…do not put your entire life savings into leveraged shitcoins. Buy bitcoin. Cold storage. Keep stacking. Be patient.

@eddyluxe_ @tristan5600 @SteaknShake They have to accept $s by law

@tristan5600 @SteaknShake The dollar has lost more value, so by that logic, shouldn't they not accept the dollar? 🤷‍♂️

@PeterMcCormack @PeterSchiff Well said Pete!! 👏🏽

@PeterSchiff Shut up you donkey, anyone who listened to your advice on bitcoin missed out on generational wealth.

Bitcoin also made a new high today, trading above $126K. But it terms of gold, it's still about 15% below its record high. I still think it's too early for Bitcoiners to get excited about the rally. Until Bitcoin can make a new high priced in gold, it's just a bear market rally.

🚨 So, where is US inflation heading now? 🇺🇸 Markets called it “lower than expected”. But here in the Truflation community, we knew better. It was -exactly- what we expected. But how did we know? 📽️ This video breaks it down—clear as day—showing you how we track inflation and what we expect in the coming months. At Truflation, we process tens of millions of data points daily to update our real-time inflation indicator. Every single day, we: ✅ Ingest fresh data ✅ Categorize & validate it ✅ Upload it to the blockchain ✅ Deliver it directly to you This relentless approach allows us to detect inflation trends an average of 45 days before the BLS prints their numbers. But let’s clear up a common misconception: We are not trying to replicate the BLS absolute values. We have our own methodology to measure inflation 📝—one that we firmly believe reflects REAL inflation. However, because government decisions are based on outdated government data, when we predict BLS CPI prints, we adjust our model in a specific way… How do we predict BLS CPI so accurately? ⛔️We apply a penalty to our own data—yes, essentially, we simulate a scenario where our real-time insights don’t exist. We strip away our immediate access to fresh data and align our weightings with those of the BLS. The result? Our BLS CPI predictions have been extremely accurate—over the past 10 months, our forecasts have had an average deviation of just 0.02% (excluding January, when the BLS changed weightings). 🎯 And while we are happy to know that our community and premium subscribers use our leading indicator for everything from Bitcoin trades and US treasury bonds to FX markets, one thing still amazes us: 🇺🇸 The biggest economy in the world spends over a billion dollars on an institution (BLS) that uses an outdated methodology—just to base one of the world’s most critical decisions (monetary policy changes) on its lagging numbers. Meanwhile, a team of 18 people (myself included—the Truflation intern 🙂), working with less than 1% of that budget, is beating them by almost two months. Why? We can only speculate... But one thing is certain: 🔹 We will always keep exposing real inflation. 🔹 We will always keep spreading the TRUF. Thank you for your support. 🤝 And to those saying prices are only going up… 🚨 Yes, prices are still rising. Lower inflation does NOT mean lower prices. It simply means that prices are increasing at a slower rate. The damage of the past five years of compounded inflation is still being felt—your groceries, rent, and everyday expenses are still far more expensive than they were. And that’s exactly why tracking real-time inflation matters—so we know where we’re heading and no one lies to us. Truflation Team 🫡🇺🇸
