Don't think so It'll be anything the school chooses to buy going forward plus the article seems to suggest they can go back and claim anything from the last 10 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will of paid VAT on anything they've bought from a VAT registered company so say a school bus or a builder turning over more than £90k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway I've just read the HMRC guidance and I still don't understand it but it looks like a mess with lots of loopholes https://www.gov.uk/guidance/charging-and-reclaiming-vat-on-goods-and-services-related-to-private-school-fees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Messy. UK Tax altogether is way too complicated, surely it could be simpler, maybe base it on the number of windows you have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lost Posted 14 hours ago Report Share Posted 14 hours ago (edited) 12 minutes ago, lazyred said: I still don't understand it but it looks like a mess with lots of loopholes I could be wrong but it read it as the following: School A switches from charity to VAT registered company. School A who's fees were 10k a year now charges 10k + VAT so 12k a year. School A has 100 pupils so £1 million in fee's and 200k VAT to the tax man BUT School A when it files its first tax return can claim back the VAT on anything its purchased in the last 10 years. School A buys about £500k of stuff a year and has VAT receipts for about 5 million in purchases so 1 million pounds of VAT HMRC rather than getting 200k owe the school £800k Edited 14 hours ago by lost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steviewevie Posted 14 hours ago Report Share Posted 14 hours ago Do Tory government economic policies usually get this amount of scrutiny? I guess this is an issue Labour always was going to have, especially when things are so tight and with so many years of underinvestment and with silly promises made by Labour in opposition. The time between election and budget doesn't help either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've seen this reference all over the internet. Here's another example of critiques of responses: https://bsky.app/profile/youngvulgarian.bsky.social/post/3l6dr3udx7i2m And to be clear, I don't think Salmond = sh*t means anyone supports independence is sh*t. I am actively rejecting the bullshit idea that we should only say nice things about someone because they're dead. He was an abusive c**t and the worst dregs of humanity and I'm not saying a single thing about him that I didn't say when he was alive.
