BREXIT: The Great British Tax Avoidance Swindle Paperback – Large Print, 1 July 2024

An excellent account of why the wealthy elites were so anxious to get Brexit. Just three words sum it up, MONEY, MONEY, MONEY. Once the EU proposed stricter tax avoidance measures across the EU the entire Tory Party and its wealthy supporters were desperate that these measures should not apply to the UK. At times you feel like hurling the book across the room, thankfully I have it on Kindle but learning that all the reasons put forward were just a smokescreen for the real reason and that was to protect the wealthy from paying their fair share of taxes.

Before the referendum some of us were aware of the tax reporting changes. This book, I've bought the paperback and the ebook, makes for grim reading.The ebook version allows you to open all the hyperlinks to the source material.

A good read. Added to all the other failed aspects of Brexit (come on, someone - list all the benefits !!!) this adds to the mix of a massive act of self harm by those who should have been acting in the interests of our country - not their own !!

Instinctively we new but here it is set out clear and simple…and fake profiles hurling slurs at author only go to show its pretty clearly got the brexiteers rattled….

This book is basically a whinge.A few skewed facts and a woeful combination of bleating and conjecture with the end result culminating in a word salad of nonsense.

Oh how the british people have been conned

I read this book online. I thought it was an in depth look at the well off and the mainstream media’s pressuring of the public to vote against our own interests for brexit( I didn’t vote on this myself due to health issues on polling day at that time). I knew it was about removing our rights in the EU. But also the biggest bunch of tax dodging/ avoidance/evasions re the super rich of Britains established, politicians media moguls and wealthy protecting their own interests at the expense of everyone else. Nolan has thoroughly researched this book and there is plenty of links and facts to back up this book and what the author has written. If you want to know the truth about how Brexit came about and why and who benefited from it, this is the book for you to read. It’s bit of a heavy read but in my humble opinion I think he has it spot on. His books deserve a read and lots of debating to show the working classes the hard truth of what we as workers are up against versus the established rich.This book was written before the Labour Party took power and there may be a couple of small changes re non doms and hereditary peers/ lords. It’s very worth while for political people students and politicians to read as well as the public can see the truth of the manipulation that politicians do to protect their own rears at the expense of the poorest in this country.

You may be wondering, dear reader, what unique insights a Kosovan architect has when it comes to the British tax system, or indeed the EU, of which Kosovo is not a member.Well, having subjected myself to reading this essay – written at secondary education level at best – the answer is none.The core premise of the essay is that Brexiteers wanted a swift departure from the EU before the EU’s Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive (Atad) came into effect. What it neglects to mention is that this is a point that has been repeatedly debunked, even by institutions favouring Remain, like the BBC.You see, the core issue is that three of the Atad rules were already in effect in the UK, even before the EU started working on it’s directive, while the other two were added in response to the directive and passed. The laws are still in place, despite two terms of a Conservative government that included the supposed “tax evaders” like Rees-Mogg.Thus the essay falls apart in the first fifth, having based it’s core premise on already debunked claims. The rest is largely meandering conjecture, punctuated by lists of lengthy bullet points copied from websites or other sources.Jazimreg delights in making broad, unsupported, even contradictory claims such as “even though the vast majority of British tax-payers are appalled by the Brexit tax avoidance scam perpetrated by prominent Brexiteers”, which comes in direct conflict to his earlier claim that “the British mainstream media largely ignored the implications of the new EU Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive on British tax-avoiding practices”. In which case, where did the “vast majority” hear about this “tax avoidance” and indeed, if there is such a “vast majority”, then why does this book need to exist?This essay may appeal to Remainers that want to bask in the satisfaction of having some out-of-date opinions reflected back at them, but it would be doing them dirty as preparation for any kind of reasoned debate. It seems determined to revive previously debunked arguments, perhaps in the hope that people have forgotten they were debunked.Certainly not worth £3.99.
