RACING POST SACRED SUNDAY MAY 17, 2015.

THE BIG READ
Lester Piggott talks to Steve Dennis 
"Being forgotten is just a fact  of life - it happens to everyone'"

Lester says  "I didn't know what people would think when I got out of prison . I thought that's it for me and racing. "

JMC: Lester should never have been sent to prison in the first place. Lester was a pioneer a path finder, what he has achieved throughout his life time career is massive. What he has achieved financially for government is massive.  Government will for ever be in his debt. There needs to be a different procedure to stop the like of this ever happening again. Perhaps this is something needing the  EU's direction. The  bloodhorse illiterate EU need to sort this out. If a person pursues his career through working abroad he has of course worked to earn the money in the first place, The tax due for working  in other country's and banked in other country's. Any tax due should be taken by that country, the country it has been earned  in, surely? Taking into consideration that far too much tax is taken by British government from all those who work everyday to provide horseracing, government  theft,  left ongoing over the last 6-7 decades, all those who government have and are ripping off financially every day.
