@DanNeidle Because it’s the easiest tax to not pay for cash flow. HMRC much more aggressive on PAYE/VAT. The filing vs payment deadline makes it a softer deadline and if you’re trying to create cash flow, CT is a good bet.

@DanNeidle Hospitality is unique insofar its tethered to the idea of food, which is mostly zero rated. In this country we have eaten the life out of a critical part of social fabric and this is why we’re asking for a level playing field against our supermarket and EU peers. 4/4

@DanNeidle This isn’t just about the numbers. It’s about an industry that has become a race to the bottom. VAT cut gives margin to smaller operators that otherwise wouldn’t survive without scale. This is why we have so many ubiquitous hospitality chains in the UK. /1

@DanNeidle In your piece you say 45% of hospitality businesses won’t get the impact. That’s a huge distortion and you must know that. We’re talking about indie restaurants, bars, cafes which survive in most other countries but not here - all of which would t/o more than the threshold. /3

@DanNeidle It’s also a cultural thing. Why do we penalise eating out at 20% via the same food you can buy at the supermarket. European countries have much more social attitudes towards food and the social impact of eating together - and I for one would like more of the same in the UK. /2

@tomhfh You mean to say EU laws still impact the UK but we now have no say in them? If only someone predicted this… #brexitlogic

@London_W4 @UnashamedBrit They’ve done it in East London for years and years and years. Stop acting like it’s some new crisis.

@MMTipping Why? (genuine question). Presumably the photographer is on the payroll for the tour. And it’s not editorial…

.@GWRHelp sat in a cold, unpowered train 3 minutes outside Paddington having started the day at 5am was not how I envisaged paying my respects to HM. Get a grip and issue some proper updates on how / whether you’re going to get people moving in time for the funeral.

@Miguel_Tavora @TechAltar And what makes me know you don’t know what you’re talking about is above you said 100m is “nothing to dive”. Why don’t you go and dive 100m and see what happens 😂

@Miguel_Tavora @TechAltar This isn’t a diver watch - which is marketing gibberish. It’s a dive *computer* certified to EN13319. Dude I’m not sure know what you’re talking about.

@Miguel_Tavora @TechAltar Lol. I think you’re confused. 40 metres for scuba diving is super deep. Very very few recreational scuba divers will go deeper than that.

@Politic72243714 @overprivileged2 @benshapiro How can a serious rational adult ask why the weapon matters? Do you want to go against an AR15 with a fire extinguisher like the guys above? Also knife crime per capita is still actually worse in the US than UK. For us it’s just so much more shocking so gets reported more.

@GWRHelp @HeathrowExpress why are GWR ticket holders at Paddington stopped from using the gates on Platform 6 - especially when a GWR train is departing from Platform 6? The staff there explained it as some kind of dispute between you both.
