Inheritance Tax
I don't really get it, why is inheritance taxed again, surely you've already been taxed once on earnings?

Re: Inheritance Tax
Can you not just give everything away just before you die to avoid having to pay it or have they thought of that?

Re: Inheritance Tax

Same as you can't flog off all your assets to a mate for a quid before declaring bankruptcy.

Re: Inheritance Tax
You can in theory double the threshold allowance by having your parents declare their estates separately prior to their passing, so £375k from one and £375k from another tax free.
That requires a bit more planning though on their part.

Re: Inheritance Tax
The inheritance tax free threshold has increased by £120k since 1997, although it's worth noting that not one of those increases has been since the ConDemNation took power.bennyfroobs wrote:cuntservatives
The current threshold is due for review in April 2015.

Re: Inheritance Tax
Taxation isn't a terribly Conservative pass-time and dynasty-protection is a rather Conservative pass-time; if anything, Conservatives should campaign against inheritance tax.bennyfroobs wrote:cuntservatives
I'm pretty in favour of it. If you're leaving your kids enough cash and assets that they're able to live comfortably without having to work very hard (or pay PAYE) then it's probably only fair that they contribute a little to the running of the country.
Not a fan of dynasties, personally.

Re: Inheritance Tax
I dunno, i guess im a bit biased but i dont really like the idea, you pay tax on your income in the first place. it's surely a bit shit to work hard to give your kids the best possible start in life and then know you're only gonna be giving your kids 30% of your salarymagma wrote:Taxation isn't a terribly Conservative pass-time and dynasty-protection is a rather Conservative pass-time; if anything, Conservatives should campaign against inheritance tax.bennyfroobs wrote:cuntservatives
