Yes, you do not work you don't pay tax.

Well, income tax perhaps!

 

[dirtydog]

Yes, you do not work you don't pay tax.

There are lots of indirect taxes, you understand this yes?

 

[Dolph]

Yes - everyone has a choice on whether to pay income tax and NI.

Go, tell me they don't so I can explain why they do.

Go on then (Here's a hint, suggestions of leaving the country don't count because mere presence cannot be considered acknowledgement of contract where there is no legitimate and free alternative.)

Just saw this:

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-15993549

It was a pretty dumb thing to say.

You have to love Clarkson's ability to make apologies that simply imply that anyone taking offence is stupid...

 

[Xordium]

I wonder if Unison will quit wasting their members' fees trying to get him locked up for it now.

Doubtful it is convenient thing to deflect the attention from the **** poor performance.

 

[Xordium]

Yes, which is why once posted I realised it did not read what I meant and edited it.

 

[4T5]

I love the saying Take them outside & shoot them in front of there familys it's Hilarious & gets me every single time.

Question ?

Is Clarksons head still growing ? Looks Massive to me.

Actually, Unisons stament was in response to a request by some of it members, so they were wasting thier own fees.

Besides, if anyone believes Unison were going to call the police/mount legal action then they are as silly as thoss who didn't think JC was joking.

Everyone who buys things pays tax whether they work or not.

 

[wildman]

Yes, you do not work you don't pay tax - well the more obvious taxation. Of course there is all the extra stuff we don't really think of in the main which is where they really get you.

Fallacy, taxation is not optional period, we are taxed to the hilt

I put it up there with the 'all lorry drivers murder prostitutes' comments he made a few years back. I quite like Clarkson simply for this reason, he is a bit of a fumbling oaf not to dissimilar to Boris Johnson i.e full of horse crap but damn funny in the delivery of it

It was a pretty dumb thing to say.

It's pretty blatantly being taken out of context. You can read the full text here and draw your own conclusions.

Frankly, Unison are being pretty daft over it.

 

[Xordium]

Unison are being pretty daft over it.

Unison are being pretty daft full stop at the moment.

Do they not get the fact that he was intentionally joking......that is abundantly clear, he even said so.....

 

[Castiel]

To be honest, if anyone was actually offended by what he said then they are stupid.

 

[quickshot89]

Indeed, the fact he said just before he made that comment, we must take both sides of the story, then blah blah blah

I watched the interview with the union woman on the BBC just before, i think she needs to get a grip and take her head out of the sand and understand who JC is, and why the BBC would never get rid of him
