Do have to pay tax out your wages in england or is this what the VAT in england is for ???

(Note am from guernsey so i have no idea how your tax system works in england)

In guernsey we have to pay 20% tax on anything we earn over about £8000..

i heard somewhere that they might be bringing VAT over here to guernsey. i hope they don't. i think jersey might have it now.

Yes jersey has it...But it's only 3%
