Tax is an increasingly taxing subject for many people who feel hard done by as Britain’s complicated system catches them out.
From quirks of the system, such as the 60 per cent tax trap and child benefit removal, to the childcare cliff edge, frozen thresholds, and pensions soon to be dragged into inheritance tax, there’s a whole host of things to drive us mad.
And, it’s getting worse. The Tories and now Labour have both chosen to ratchet up the things that trip people up to raise money, rather than sort out a tax system that most economists say is a total mess.
So how far would you go to avoid your personal tax raid? And is tax changing people’s behaviour? Lee highlights how.
On this podcast, Georgie Frost, Lee Boyce and Simon Lambert dive into how the British tax tail is wagging the dog.
Plus, as the Switch 2 arrives and the video game industry goes from strength to strength, should you invest in video game firms?

How much do you need for a comfortable retirement – and what does that get you?
And finally, you put up an 8 foot fence for privacy, your neighbour has gone from non-plussed to threatening to call the council over a planning breach, what do you do?
The team have some answers.
And for all the listeners that Simon directed to the gem that is the comments section of the story, here’s the link.
