Common sense and a firm understanding of the people you represent is of far more value on the doorstep than any official qualification.

The value of an Oxford Education (or any education for that matter) lies more in the inculcated ability to think before you ink than it does in the matter studied and also in the social and professional connections it affords those fortunate enough to attend. I believe that HMRC have a range of manuals available to assist in calculating liability for tax. Would you like me to give you their web adddress?
