Nothing subtle at all. One is illegal and the other is not. Do you offer to pay more tax that you are due ?

Ask any accountant, certainly on a corporate basis, and the answer to the question how much tax should I pay is waht do you want to pay.

Answer my question please, do you offer to pay more tax than you are legally required to ? Or don't; you've painted yourself right into the corner.

Not at all, as I've stated tax is fluid, the fact you don't realise this is quite naive.

Just look round a few of the other boards, do you contribute to vcts or not, pension contributions, the latter in particular leading to ability to claim additional benefits or reduce clawback.

Whether the tax reduction wags the tail of the risky investments, such as vct, eis, etc is personal choice and opinion.

Thank you for conceding my point by not directly answering my very simple question.
