His own family problems over non-dom status, at a time of the highest tax burden in a generation, proved tax isZahawi’s line that his failure to pay his full taxes was “careless but not deliberate” is not a defence many of us would get away with in other spheres of life.
When the minister in charge of HM Revenue and Customs fails to be transparent about paying a tax penalty, it’s difficult to see how public confidence in the whole system cannot suffer. One particularly strange element of all this is that Zahawi’s post of “Minister without Portfolio” is one of the thinnest excuses for a Government job in Whitehall, a polite fiction to ensure the Tory party chairman attends Cabinet meetings. In terms of its benefits to Government business, it’s a job that is eminently dispensable.. One is secretarial, being in charge of “writerounds”, the policy letters exchanged between ministers.
