//Why a duty, TTT? Prudent self-interest, yes.//
I also term it a "duty". Just as you have a duty to pay what you rightly owe, you have duty to pay as little as possible. It cuts both ways. The first duty is to the Exchequer, the second to yourself and your family. Nobody should pay money to the government if they can avoid it. Governments (of all persuasions) are not renowned for their prudence and the less they have to waste the more prudent they might become (though I won't hold my breath). Provided they do so within the law, I applaud anybody who finds ways to reduce their tax bill to the absolute minimum. Most of us don't have too much scope to do so, but those who have that scope and use it draw my admiration.

we all have a duty to avoid paying tax where possible.
no no no - you have a duty to pay tax when it is owed ( the tax man has a right to collect it) and the court will enforce it. duty and right are connected
we have a power to avoid paying tax
I have no idea where NJ was during his lecture on Hohelf and juridical correlatives

respected jurists conflate various meanings of the term right, sometimes switching senses of the word several times in a single sentence.

I notice our Prime Minister was fined £100 yesterday. Probably claim it on his expenses.
our grommy-wommy hasnt been paying attention, naughty growmmy wommy
I notice our Prime Minister has to pay a fixed penalty £100 yesterday. I am aware it is unlawful to claim it on his expenses against tax
ahhhhh that is much better.

As I understand it, the size of the penalty is giving rise to demands for an enquiry into the matter.
If penalties are pro rata for the tax not paid, then it suggests that the avoidance may have been large enough to require investigation into possible criminal intent.
I would imagine that anyone attracting a penalty of that size will have legal council of sufficient heft to be able to see of HMRC's representatives.
That said, the fact that an investigation, should one be forthcoming, does not bode well for the gentleman's reputation, and perceived suitability for government office.

I too am of the mindset that everybody should use all legal means to reduce their tax burden and to only pay what they are required to pay.
I can assure everybody, with 100% certainty, that I am am better at using my money than any Government is.
It always makes me wryly smile how people get irritated when somebody legitimately avoids tax; it's only ever other people who don't pay enough tax isn't it!
There's not a single person who would rather pay £100 in tax if they can legitimately pay £50....but if there is such a person, I've got some magic beans to sell them.
Anybody who has an ISA is legitimately avoiding tax.

So how about this for a silly decision, surely any decent smart coat will do so as long as the rest of the uniform ia school branded, I imagine the coat will be removed once in school and can be worn anywhere.
