Think he had no choice as to how to take it really, still must have been shitting himself though.

Typical of the modern day comedian i reckon....ripping the fuck out of politicians and the such for a living while acting a complete twat himself....fact is his latest gig was a career saving one i reckon.
But as you say a big up to him for facing the flack.

Nothing will beat Angus Deayton on HIGNFY when the stories about him came out.
Brilliant episode.

Shitting himself? Until HMRC proves it otherwise, the scheme he was using was perfectly legal. Tax avoidance is not against the law. t's perfectly legitimate financial planning, JC just bottled it because of the bad PR. |

Me neither... the loopholes need closing. I'd do exactly the same if I were earning big bucks.

I wasn't referring to the law, just the gig. |

Yeah...most of the politicians claiming expenses said they were not breaking the law because the laws controling them were very lapse......didn't stop most of them copping an earfull though. Fact is if you are in the public eye waxing lyrical on social injustices its a bit rich finding ways of not paying your tax. |

What the fuck you on about....the prime minister takes fuck all from me. A government elected take taxes from everyone not just me.....unlike Mr Carr i cannot find a way of avoiding it. Just because he is a comedian and not a hooray henry dosnt make it more acceptable...not in my eyes anyway. The comic is a grade A cunt.....along with the others...thats my point. |
