I didn't at any time claim to know the facts.
The structure of EBT's are unknown to me. What I do know is that an EBT is a legal scheme used to minimize tax liability.
There are other schemes used by high earners. I know not how they operate either.
I do know how the dividend scheme worked because I was an IT contractor in 2000 when HMRC decided they didn't like it and ****ed us up the ass with IR35.
As for the "5000" I simply repeated that there were an "estimated 5000" companies in the UK who are, or have, implemented EBT's. This I got from a BBC radio news report. But that matters **** all. What does matter is how it ends up when the tax lawyers are done arguing over it.
Now, you, wee soopy poopy, should just once take yer hoops tap aff (even when in the shower) and have a think about it.
In closing, yer still a ridiculous wee fanny.
