Great @restate_thinks panel with @GarethDavies_MP, @AphraBrandreth, @wallaceme , & Tim Sarson on growth, the role of the regions & tax

My first budget speculation article of 2025. Unlikely to be the last.

My take on whether Pillar 2 has a future. cityam.com/can-a-global-m… I’m a bit behind in posting this with the reasonable excuse of being on holiday.

@peacockreports An incredible 199mm at my vineyard site in the East Kent downs this month. After the previous 6 months delivered 350mm.

Reflecting on the unsettled spell of 18th-24th July. Southern UK has widely seen 10-25 mm, locally a lot more. Look at the SE corner! A very wet July there. Meanwhile there's this roughly manatee-shaped area of mostly less than 10 mm, locally less than 5 mm.

This month in @CityAM I’m taking a break from trade wars and US tax and reflecting, in a very non-TwiX style, on how in international tax there is more that unites than divides us. Enjoy cityam.com/have-developed…

My monthly international tax roundup in @taxjournal. Hard to avoid US developments at the moment, but there's other stuff in there ($$ but free if you register with the website) taxjournal.com/articles/inter…

In this month’s @CityAM tax column I’m taking on the downright scary “retaliatory” tax measures targeting countries like us, and currently making their way through US legislature. cityam.com/forget-tariffs…

DST survives the trade deal unscathed. Perhaps to be offered up later.

My latest @CityAM article, on the digital services tax and its siblings around the world. On a theme (don’t ask me why) of the legendary Flanders & Swann Gnu Song. cityam.com/welcome-to-the…

@DanNeidle @LeCol94 No idea, sorry! I assume not or we’d all have heard about it.

@LeCol94 I could be wrong, but I don’t think anyone’s ever gone to jail for a mass-marketed scheme, even the very egregious ones. @TimSarson1, any idea?

One of the country’s most incompetent and damaging tax advisers, Chris Bailey, has just filed for bankruptcy. His firms, SKS Bailey, OCG and Less Tax for Landlords sold a deeply incompetent landlord tax avoidance scheme. Hundreds of people face financial ruin.

It’s that time again: visiting the Mansion House with fellow tax advisers to brief the Lord Mayor on what’s happening in the world of tax. And I seem to be the first here today.
