I am an employee at an organisation (I am not self-employed). The organisation requires me to have a computer that can access the workplace electronic system as part of my terms and conditions. My laptop is too outdated to access this. If I buy a new laptop that can access the workplace electronic system, can I claim the cost of the laptop as a tax detectable expense?

Hello My friend wants to gift me £30,000 to use as deposit to buy a house. Do either of us have to pay tax on this? Thanks
