I’m not entirely sure whether this taxable amount will be taken anually or monthly, but even worst case scenario means £6 a year will be syphoned off from Britain’s elite and hardest working. That means for one lunch a year, they’ll have to skip buying a chicken wrap from Subway and bring something from home.

    Does this not mean 50p out of every £1 earned?
    Like they are taxed 50% of what they earn?

    I know nothing about money (My friends will attest to that, lol) so i might be wrong?

    It’s a typo, they meant to put 50% I am sure.

    The business loans seem to be important for people, which are willing to start their business. As a fact, that’s not very hard to get a secured loan.
