I see the moral argument but a consultant working an £800/day contract while drawing minimum wage on paper is quite different to someone dumping money into an ISA. It's telling that various outfits offer "IR35 investigation insurance" now. An ISA requires no manipulation.
Yep. But that's a moral choice. How do you then enshrine that in law, and how many people would make a different choice if they were able to do the same? Not many imo.
Altho I do think that the provision of tax products to the well off rather than just the very wealthy is interesting, and among other things is why HMRCs (and the Govt) are now making more of a big deal about tax avoidance.
