    Revealed: How Nigel Farage uses his firm Thorn In The Side Ltd to halve the tax bill on £45,000 in extra earnings
    Ukip leader pays earnings from journalism and lecturing to his own firm
    In 2012-13 Thorn In The Side made profits of more than £45,000
    Will have paid £10,785.10 in corporation tax, not £21,883.03 income tax

    Oh goody. Complete lack of understanding how a 'PSC' works.

    £45,000 in extra earnings...INKSPE!
    Socialism is inseparably interwoven with totalitarianism and the abject worship of the state.

    No Socialist Government conducting the entire life and industry of the country could afford to allow free, sharp, or violently-worded expressions of public discontent.

      Company acronym TITS Ltd is pretty good though.

          Labour should do the 'patriotic' thing and disassemble.

            Nigel is indeed a benefit tourist and welfare bum.
            <Insert idea here> will never be adopted because the politicians are in the pockets of the banks!

              You have to hand it to Nigel Farage, he does the 'common touch' well with his populist soundbites and 'man of the people' image.
              UKIP and Farage have also been trying to sell themselves as somehow different from the mainstream political parties, with promises to stand up for the common man and end the spiv culture that pervades our body politic.
              Yet here is their leader using a tax dodge to avoid paying income tax whilst the common man he claims to champion groans under the yoke of austerity (which incidentally UKIP and Farage support wholeheartedly) which is being imposed because .......
              we have a big national deficit caused by a drop in the tax take.
              ........
              So Nigel, the truth is you are actually no different to all the other political spivs in Westminster and are out to take as much for yourself as you can it would seem and hang the 'common man' (haven't forgotten you trying to set up an offshore company to avoid tax a couple of years ago and you and your fellow UKIP MEP's claiming £800K a year in expenses from the EU either).
              UKIP offering something different? Yeah right!
              Mind you what do you expect from a party set up by a merchant banker, funded by bankers and the fossil fuel lobby and run by an ex-banker.
              Shame some people are so blinded by their hatred of the EU, immigration and disillusionment (which is justified) with the other three parties to notice that UKIP are taking them for a ride.
              Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

                Stop fixating on Farage the man.

                This is about raising awareness to get the UK out of the EU.

                It's the message not the messenger.

                  That's your prejudice talking.

                  He's a politician. That's what he does. That's what they all do.

                  The problem is helmet, you get caught up in it all like someone watching a Punch and Judy show and get all frothy and ranty. "He's behind you!". Heart attack material. It's all smoke and mirrors. Let it go. Focus on something else you'd like to do. Like flower arranging. Or sudoku.
                  If you think my attitude stinks, you should smell my fingers.

                    It's not a tax dodge. He sells his services/image as a PSC.

                    UKIP are dross and Farage is a fool, but on this issue there is no issue except the media looking to sell inches.
