As our banks print more money for more wars, pandemics and 'Green Opportunities', the debt on the counterfeiting increases annually, forcing the taxpayer to shell out £60BN in interst payments for loans of money from thin air. Nice work if you can fraud it. But does money really exist, or is it merely a creation on a bank's leger, in which case, why would we need to pay it back? https://www.attackingthedevils.com/post/empty-promises

Council tax challenges update

Most of this article seems on point but we do not agree that there are or will be military tribunals and this is not an argument we would run if dealing with this issue personally.

Also we have repeatedly said and shown that a council tax summons is issued as "in the criminal case of" and this point should be stressed to any court. If you are in a criminal case why are the criminal procedure rules not being followed? If the court wants to argue that it's a civil case it would seem prudent to ask why a summons is used. If the insistence is that somehow it's still a civil case and the powers to issue a summons somehow come from the local government act, the question to then ask is why are the civil procedure rules not being followed.

This article is right on this issue. Council tax hearings follow neither the criminal nor civil procedure rules, so they are not within "the law". They must therefore be operating within a star chamber set up, otherwise known as an administrative court, outlawed in this country for the purposes of hearing cases or handing out sentences.

One would assume the next step is perhaps to go for declaratory relief on this issue. Or see to where such a case could be appealed so the issues of due process and legal rules can be fully discussed.

On the issue of councils being corporations care is needed in the sense that they are statutory corporations, so one should know the difference.

On the point of issuing of summonses, this would seem settled law. It is a judicial process not an administrative one, and therefore these cases seem to fall on this issue alone. We have spoken about this before and will link the post regarding the same again in another post below this one.

Dave Smith highlights a disturbing reality.

If civilians are responsible for the crimes of their governments, then the American citizenry are responsible for the deaths of MILLIONS.

This idea that the Palestinians deserve to die for what Hamas did… is absolutely insane.

Let’s see if Americans maintain this same energy when it’s revealed the US were responsible for SARS-CoV-2.

And on Rumble:The UK taxpayer has been funding wars to the tune of £1,875/per taxpayer, per year since 2001. This has come at the cost of 2M lives. 5-10% of all taxes and fines go towards 'defence' - money that has in fact been used to pay for wars of agression and to subsidise the 'defence industry'. If 25% of people in the UK say they cannot afford Christmas, why are we funding wars? We have a right to say how our taxes are spent. Withhold tax lawfully. The will of the people is the law. https://rumble.com/v3z1qpj-probityco.com-stop-funding-wars-withhold-tax-lawfully.html

According to Bloomberg $5TN of ESG funding has gone on the 'defence' industry. Awkward. As of Q3 2023, over 1,200 ESG funds, pledged to uphold environmental, social, and governance standards - itself another transfer of wealth - have been diverted to invest in shares worth around $5 trillion in the 'defense' aka aggression sector. Hopefully this will lead to a load of lawsuits as the ESG transfer of wealth program was sold as having an 'ethical focus' on 'sustainability ideals'. Maybe they meant sustaining the arms industry. https://www.rt.com/business/588094-esg-funds-invest-arms-industry/

Since 2001, the UK government and our political, civil, judicial, military and corporate leaders have broken many of the major international and domestic criminal laws and treaties signed and ratified by Parliament that govern warfare and the use of armed force. Pippa Bartolotti argues that there is no UK department of defence, merely a department of war. And we fund it. MAKE WARS HISTORY. Withhold Tax Lawfully

The US 'Defense Budget' for 2023 came in at $877BN - more than the 10 other highest spending countries combined, including China, Russia, Saudi Arabia and Germany. The 3.88BN alone sent to Israel to fund the Gaza war could instead have funded 451,735 public housing units, 1.322 M children receiving free or low-cost healthcare, 41,490 elementary school teachers, 10.8M households with electricity and 100,563 student loans. The Defense Budget does not defend the US. It subsidises the Defense Industry, lobbyists, defense contractors and bank loans. Taxpayers should have the right to decide how their money is spent. Withhold tax lawfully and stop funding wars.

From Lawyers of Light: Following the end of the Napoleonic War in 1815, public mood of compliance with income tax rapidly evaporated.

In 1842 Peel re-introduced income tax at 7d in the pound on incomes over £150. This allowed him to remove import and export duties on more than 700 items.

In 2022/23, the UK government raised over £1,017 billion in receipts – income from taxes and other sources. This is equivalent to around 40% of the size of the UK economy, as measured by GDP, which is the highest level since the 1980s.

This New Year the resolution for all on this channel is "it's time to make income tax repugnant again".

According to the Stockholm International Peace Research Institute, military spending in Europe showed the sharpest year-on-year increase in 30 years as governments in the region announced new orders to replenish national stocks depleted by aid to Ukraine.

Speaking at a briefing alongside UK Foreign Minister David Cameron, Antony Blinken admitted that the overwhelming majority of Kiev’s monetary aid had been spent in the US. “90% of the security assistance we’ve provided [in Ukraine] has actually been spent here in the United States with our manufacturers...So this has also been a win-win that we need to continue.” A tidy transfer of wealth from the US taxpayer to the arms industry. Cost to Ukraine? 500,000 dead and counting.

With the ever-present threat of Internet collapse, transhumanism and CBDCs, it's comforting to note that more often than not, when it comes to those 'in power' aka The Servants of the People, invariably the left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing and chaos reigns.

Zacchaeus the Tax Collector

Jesus entered Jericho and was passing through. A man was there by the name of Zacchaeus; he was a chief tax collector and was wealthy. He wanted to see who Jesus was, but because he was short he could not see over the crowd. So he ran ahead and climbed a sycamore-fig tree to see him, since Jesus was coming that way.

When Jesus reached the spot, he looked up and said to him, “Zacchaeus, come down immediately. I must stay at your house today.” So he came down at once and welcomed him gladly.

All the people saw this and began to mutter, “He has gone to be the guest of a sinner.”

But Zacchaeus stood up and said to the Lord, “Look, Lord! Here and now I give half of my possessions to the poor, and if I have cheated anybody out of anything, I will pay back four times the amount.”

Jesus said to him, “Today salvation has come to this house, because this man, too, is a son of Abraham. For the Son of Man came to seek and to save the lost.” Or to put it another way, it is never too late for HMRC to redeem itself. https://www.taxpolicy.org.uk/2023/03/09/penalties/
