Implied Trusts and Beneficial Ownership in Modern UK Tax Law takes
a look at that gap which lies between books on tax and those on
trust law, and tries to bridge the two. How and why is beneficial
ownership important in UK tax? How does HM Revenue & Customs
and the law recognise the imposition of beneficial ownership for
tax purposes via an implied trust? and when will UK tax law impose
beneficial ownership on a different taxpayer from the legal owner
of an asset or income source? As well as tracing the story behind
Britain's ancient tax laws and courts, relevant legislation, cases
and HM Revenue & Customs' guidance are all reviewed to paint a
picture of how equity and implied trusts fit within today's tax
laws. With the introduction of the 4th and 5th Anti-Money
Laundering Directives, it is more important than ever to identify
where beneficial ownership lies. This book is ideal for academics
and practitioners alike, looking at the history of equity law and
the chancery court through a prism of taxation; as well as the
practical application of beneficial ownership when considering a
client's tax position. Those practitioners specialising in trusts
should find this book an interesting and useful aid to supplement
their knowledge of implied trusts and the relationship between the
more-usual express trusts. Whether you are new to the tax
profession, or a seasoned professional, there will be something
here for everyone.
From cover to cover, this book is full of imaginative, read-to-use

loved; - Ordinary Time: journeying in faith, venturing out,
encountering storms, not losing heart, replenishing our resources;
- Transfiguration: seeing heaven in the everyday; - Harvest:
fruitfulness in unexpected places; - All Saints and All Souls:
expressing our grief, joyful remembrance, finding light in the
darkness.
Two performance texts by Hannah Jane Walker and Chris Thorpe The Oh
Fuck Moment Fucking up is the truest, funniest, most terrifying
moment you can experience. Poet Hannah Jane Walker and
theatre-maker Chris Thorpe examine the poetic guts of mistakes in a
bundle of words and strip lighting. The Oh Fuck Moment is an
award-winning conversation around a desk for brave souls to hold
their hands up and admit they fucked up, or for people to laugh at
us because we did. 'A brilliant celebration of our mistakes and
evolutionary reflexes' Guardian I Wish I Was Lonely I Wish I Was
Lonely is an interactive show about contactability asking whether
the invisible waves we're tethered to might be drowning who we are.
It's a show in which the audience commit to leaving their phones
on. A show investigating what it means to participate in
communication - or not. There are poems, there are stories and
there is conversation. I Wish I Was Lonely sees Hannah Jane Walker
and Chris Thorpe ask how much of ourselves we've given up to the
new gods in our pockets. Hannah Jane Walker is a poet and Chris
Thorpe is a theatre-maker.Together they make award-winning work
that is part performance, part poetry gig and part interactive
experience. Their work is based around an honest encounter between
themselves, an audience and the difficult but often uplifting
moments we all face in the process of living. Their shows feel like
a generous, open conversation, with poetry and storytelling at
their heart and space for audiences to contribute in a meaningful
way.

Pain with no apparent cause. Also, she's met someone, and they want
to make this work. Words, light and an original sound score collide
in a new piece from this Scotsman Fringe First award-winning team -
exploring life in extremity, and the joy that can be found there.

Winner of a Scotsman Fringe First Award 2014 If you pinned me
against a wall and put a gun to my head, I'd probably admit to
being a liberal. Actually if you pinned me against a wall and put a
gun to my head,I'd probably admit to being whatever you wanted me
to be. And of course, putting a gun to my head is exactly what I'd
expect from someone likeyou. Confirmation is a show about the gulf
between beliefs that we can't talk across.About our knee-jerk
dismissal of the opposing viewpoint. About the echo chamberof
agreement and validation we live in. About the way we choose only
to see theevidence that proves we're right. A new solo show from a
multi Fringe First winning team: written and performed by Chris
Thorpe (Unlimited Theatre, Third Angel), developed with and
directed by Rachel Chavkin (The TEAM).

happens? Sometimes planes don't land the way they're supposed to.
The people of a country have had enough of their leaders, but those
leaders have to be replaced with something. A person steps out of a
crowd and, for a moment, becomes more than human. A man walks into
the lobby of a building and brings death with him to prove his
point. There Has Possibly Been An Incident is the new play from
award winning British playwright & performer, Chris Thorpe.

It's hard turning thirty. Especially when your alcoholic father has
taken the toilet door, you've got a sixteen-year-old schoolgirl in
your bed and your best friend is the lunatic living downstairs.
Then an old school friend turns up after ten years living in
Huddersfield and it's the start of an evening where the sparks fly
and the ketchup flows. A dark, painful and very funny play by
Serbian writer Ugljesa Sajtinac, in a version by Fringe First
winner, Chris Thorpe, Huddersfield was part of the Northern
Exposure season at the West Yorkshire Playhouse.
Six plays, six places: Eskdale, Staindrop, Whitby, Boston,
Stoke-on-Trent, Manchester. Chris Thorpe's cycle of six warm, witty
new plays crosses Northern England, from a sheep farm in Eskdale
via a tourist information centre in Whitby to Manchester. A fort on
a hilltop, a landowner's estate, a tourist information office, a
bird sanctuary, a re-developed factory, a public square, silent and
remembering. Chris Thorpe's cycle of six new plays explores the
landscapes that surround us and how we live with each other. In an
ambitious original production by Sam Pritchard, each of the six
parts of The Mysteries was made and premiered in the place it was
written. During its run in Manchester, two day-long performances of
the whole cycle took place in the Royal Exchange Theatre space.
“A thousand people are taking a sip of coffee within the city
limits of Johannesburg, each unaware of the other doing it, each
one necessarily thinking they are the only one.” An attempt to
get to grips with the fact that everything happens at once. And to
see if there’s anything we can do about it. “Find the
connection between where you are and where I am. Open up the space
between us and do something.”
Agamemnon must sacrifice his daughter, Clytemnestra must try to
stop him, Iphigenia must accept her fate, the Chorus must watch.
Ships lie dormant in harbours, and thousands of troops sit on the
shore, growing restless and unruly. Helen is gone, and pursuit of
her has been stalled by windless seas. To raise the winds to send
his fleet to Troy, Agamemnon is commanded by the gods to sacrifice
his daughter, Iphigenia. But his deceit of his wife, Clytemnestra
and the killing of his child, will end up tearing him and
everything around him to pieces. Euripides' story of a father moved
to murder his daughter, Iphigenia at Aulis, is one that has been
reinvented and retold anew throughout history. The Iphigenia
Quartet sees four of the UK's most exciting and radical playwrights
- Caroline Bird, Suhayla El Bushra, Lulu Raczka, and Chris Thorpe -
create explosive responses to this classical tragedy. Each play is
a reimagining this story of familial catastrophe from the differing
perspectives of the key characters in the play: Agamemnon,
Clytemnestra, Iphigenia and the Chorus.

In the last five years or so, there has been a huge explosion of
scholarly work on the history of food and, likewise, pressing
problems such as food scares and genetic modification, as well as
anorexia and obesity, have become increasingly present in the
public consciousness. Drawing on a wide variety of disciplines,
this fascinating four-volume collection covers anthropology,
sociology, psychology, history, cultural history, land economy,
and, outside of the arts and social sciences, disciplines such as
health sciences and health economics. An engaging and comprehensive
reference, it is undoubtedly a highly useful resource for both
student and scholar alike.

Status is a show about someone who doesn't want his any more. About
running away from the national story you're given. About who is
responsible for that story and what might happen to it if you give
it up. A globe-spanning journey of attempted escape, with songs
along the way. Status springs from conversations about who we might
be, and whether your country needs you more than you might need it.
A new show from the multi Fringe First winning team that created
Confirmation: written and performed by Chris Thorpe (Unlimited
Theatre, Third Angel) developed with and directed by Rachel Chavkin
