I still do not understand why our government refuses to do the one socialist thing from the States, that’s tax every British citizen no matter where they live, why do we have tax exiles living in the Caribbean, Monaco or similar earning money from the UK and pay not a penny.
These people wouldn’t leave the UK if this was introduced, because they already have.
Not only would this income help our public services, but could help bolster our defences.
With the billions this would raise, as a sweetener to those Tax Exiles, and in fact all British citizens the government could afford to stop charging IHT, which is probably the most hated tax of all.
France are considering doing this, they have 60 billionaires and believe they will collect 72 Billion over 3 years. We have 160+ billionaires so possibly 150+ billion for the UK

Would it really make that much difference, Starmer/Farage?
Wow, as much as Starmer is far from a good Labour leader, Farage would sell our souls to the Americans
……and the difference is?
