Business owners also clobbered with 'blanket punishment' tax

The new dividend tax rate announced in the Budget came to me a surprise from a Conservative government. I understand that there has been some sharp practice with contractors, but this blanket ruling will hurt the independent businesses just as hard.


There is even a petition. I should quickly add that the petition is nothing to do with me. I wonder how long before there is little choice on Lordship Lane but to drink Frapachinos bought with Amazon vouchers found on Google.


It is getting harder to find the tax breaks for local entrepreneurs and businesses. Something tells me the new rulings will not last in their current form.

    • The link below has further information suggesting that the shop demolition and square redevelopment is funded separately from the station upgrades, so will go ahead:   https://www.ianvisits.co.uk/articles/peckham-rye-stations-step-free-upgrade-has-been-put-on-hold-82360/ 
    • Last time the toilets were out of operation in the station M&S we were all told to go out and up to Sainsbo! Certainly didn't close (I'm not suggesting that's the thing the library should do!)
    • Was it the two proxy votes that had swung it for Cllr McAsh in the first round? Interesting that he lost by two votes in the second. One wonders what the next move for Cllr McAsh is and whether the infighting will continue between the various factions within Southwark Labour?
    • Has anything emerged as to how the reported misinterpretation of rules ruling out proxy votes occurred, or what the specific fault was?  I've found and looked through https://labour.org.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/06/Labour-group-model-standing-orders-2023.pdf, which afaics seems to be a prime relevant document.  It allows for local council Labour groups making minor amendments to cater for their council's particular form of organisation.  I've not seen any _explicit_ mention of proxy voting in the model SOs document itself.  I'm  attaching my notes on it.     re_Labour-Group-Model-SOs.txt
