So Churchill was a tax dodger.

It wasn't so much that he was in trouble.

He just spent money as soon as he made it, never held anything back and could never pay his tax.

Mr Polanski lived on an Ara boat for three years.

He didn't pay council tax.

And I think most people would expect that if you're living on a boat, it's more than one place for three years, and that's your home, you should pay council tax.

You mentioned Angela Rainer. she should have paid the second home rate of stamp duty she has

now settled and she wasn't fined and I thought she would be because I thought she'd

been careless there's definitely an argument that tax is really complicated though

isn't it you've said before about you think we have

too many taxes. So should we be giving the benefit of the doubt before we go heavy on saying

people are tax dodgers? We're delighted to say that this year the rest is money is powered by

Octopus Energy. So we're joined by its founder and CEO, Greg Jackson. So Greg, I heard that the prices of solar and

home battery storage are falling. So is it worth waiting before you invest in them? First of all,

we never know what's going to happen to the future price of energy. It could go up or go down.

So I think when people try to do a really detailed payback calculation,

the problem is you don't really know what the alternative is. But I don't know many people

who've regretted getting these technologies because the one thing, whenever you get them, is it

helps insulate against the volatility of the market prices. And so as far as I can tell, the vast majority of people who've made that decision are happy

with it.

Greg, thank you very much.

Now on with today's episode.
