@Sam_Dumitriu As an accountant who may well vote reform my opinion is this a completely ridiculous policy and simply doesn't fit how income tax works. Very disappointed this is the kind of stupid crap they've come up with
Reform have proposed abolishing tax on overtime for every worker earning less than £75k.
My take:
1. This appears to be an import of Trump’s extremely dumb (but clearly popular) ‘no tax on tips’ policy.
2. If your aim is to boost growth and incentivise work, this isn’t a good use of £5bn. It’s a luxury policy in all honesty: can they honestly say £5bn couldn’t go further elsewhere (either in tax cuts, infrastructure investment, or just improving public services)?
3. This will likely create lots of avoidance opportunities.
4. There will also be genuine cases of unfairness. What about workers with second jobs?
5. This is likely to create a massive cliff-edge problem where taking an extra hour of overtime or getting a raise leaves someone thousands of pounds worse off.
Leicester City announce a loss of £71.1m for year ending 30th June 2025.
High player wages/amortisation in relation to turnover, lack of significant player sales cited as key factors.
And relegation.
Not particularly pleasant, as expected.

BREAKING: Leicester City have announced a restructure at senior leadership level.
James McCarron will become Sporting Director and joins from the City Group.
Director of Football Jon Rudkin will now take on the Chief Football Officer role and current Finance Director Kevin Davies will become CEO.
@hotprojectsuk@NickJFuentes Yes, Nicholas Fuentes did post that he liked the Super Bowl halftime show featuring Bad Bunny. The performance celebrated Latin culture but drew criticism from some, including Trump, for its political nods. Views are divided—fun for some, controversial for others.
If* England reach the World Cup final (if* etc), they will not sell out their official FA allocation. The cost of tickets in the most expensive two categories are putting off members of England Supporters Travel Club. There will be only 3,409 England fans present at MetLife Stadium on July 19 via the official FA allocation of 4,500. The two cheapest categories were oversubscribed by members. But the most expensive categories were undersubscribed, especially Cat 1 ($8,680) also Cat 2 ($5,575).
Semi-final also undersubscribed. Of the official FA allocation of 3,500, only 2,686 taken up by members if* England reach the semi (members baulking at the most expensive tickets, Cat 1 $3,170 and Cat 2 $2,440). All England games up to and including the quarter-final are oversubscribed.
"And we’re having to fork out for those tickets now (payments taken from 9-22 Feb)," one England fan says. "We get the money back later in the summer if England don’t get knock-out games we’ve paid for." #ENG 🦁🦁🦁
What a genuinely awful team to watch.
We create next-to-nothing, we lose all of our duels, players disinterested, no co-ordination. Martí’s systems are terrible, his ideas of how to control the ball are hideous. The OOP shape is non-existent, we don’t press, what do we offer?
Hate to do this, show the table like this, but think with a points deduction looming we have to accept that this season is now about simply staying mid table.
Do the maths… take 9 points off us and we are right into the relegation scrap and being honest the one thing you don’t see from the lads on the pitch is the fight and determination to take on a scrap. They couldn’t even be bothered to celebrate a late goal today. Comment your views…

@peterp2000@LeicesterFanTV We've been shit all season and we have the highest wage bill in the division. The manager has to take a big chunk of the blame. But we all know it's not the only problem
@LeicesterFanTV Why is the first inclination to blame the manager? BDR had two great chances. Fatawu one. Got a couple of bad bounces. Outside of a ten minutes stretch at beginning of the second half they totally outplayed Coventry. The problem is not Marti.
It all went wrong in the second half..: do you blame Marti ? The passing football when we are under the cosh… when will we learn?
