      „Fears of a massive non-dom exodus from the UK have been allayed by initial tax data, which suggests that total numbers leaving the country are in line with — or even below — official forecasts.“

      Wait, are you telling me…. the wealth management firms were lying about where the wealth was going? No…

      Edit: Literally in the article „Most non-doms receive UK employment or pension income, meaning they are captured in official Pay as You Earn data“.

      Funny how all the economic doom mongering seems to have been wrong (see also the thing about there not being a massive sale of farms due to inheritance tax)

      I have a friend at work that’s super right wing that keeps talking about the millionaires leaving, I showed him that most of those reports came from a hedge fund management service and that HMRC data showed that it wasn’t happening, but he said that he doesn’t believe it. He feels it’s happening and has spoken to people so that’s what he believes.

      This from the ‘facts not feelings’ cheerleader

    4. PAYE non-doms, i.e. those probably more anchored in the UK via employment? What are the stats on the non-dom cohort in terms of PAYE and non-PAYE (CGT etc.), logic would imply nom-doms with PAYE income must be tiny.

    5. We are going to suffer with loads of stories like this, so that taxes are applied to everyday people. Otherwise the Ultra wealthy will leave, happens every time tax rises are needed.

      What need to be fixed is the government!! We need real MP that represent us and not their corporate sponsors!

      People might have other strategies than leaving the UK immediately (on paper). In the year of departure you can optimise taxes. In many cases you get two tax free allowances. Also, the fact that UK tax year is April to April rather than the calendar year is also a great tool to reduce tax burden. Let’s wait.

    7. If the rich are fleeing this country it just proves that the rich really are hoarding wealth

      She should change the law that all British Passport holders must pay UK taxes , or lose the status

    9. Doom, gloom, doom, gloom.

      Can the UK just stop talking?

      Work out a strategy that the whole country can get behind.

      Make sure it benefits the UK as a whole and not just a select few.

      Let’s at least start with building new housing.

      Let’s remove the rights of local councils that block development projects—if it’s approved at a government level and it doesn’t break national laws or protected rights, then sorry—your small, nice little village needs to expand, because the UK is currently struggling with homelessness.

      Let’s fund the military properly: stop the cuts, stop the sudden large increases. Just find a happy medium so our forces can do their jobs effectively.

      Let’s stop selling off our infrastructure to those who might want to see the UK capitulated to everyone.

      Please, can we get a serious strategy in place for illegal immigrants? If they’re a family escaping war, I get that they need help. But let’s be realistic—do they need a four‑bedroom house, mobile phones, and clothing given to them? Maybe set up an area away from the general population that has strong security. No—it’s not a concentration camp. But we have crime every day caused by foreign nationals. No, I am not far‑right. I just want Britain to be at its best. Which means immigration—yes, absolutely—if people can provide their own funds, support themselves, bring high-level skills to the UK workforce. At the moment we have a very large low‑skilled workforce, which is making it difficult for the average Brit to find work. Not everyone has a degree. Not everyone can become a doctor—and yet those who need work can’t because some industries are completely oversaturated with foreign workers. This creates a situation where British people are increasingly unemployed because there are cheaper workers. In the catering industry we have entire kitchens, hotels, everything filled with staff from elsewhere. I am highly proud that this country has the privilege to attract foreign interest—but when it’s affecting the average person in the UK, is it really beneficial?

      I really feel that the country is deteriorating—not only because of what I’ve already mentioned, but because of the clear lack of solidarity. The UK feels like a place where the internet is the platform to argue. There is so much disinformation and so many agendas that affect all of us, but it’s magnified out of proportion.

      I feel personally like it got like this during the Brexit debate. So much hatred towards each other. I miss when we all just got along—when there wasn’t some new reason to hate each other. There’s more racism now than there ever was. Kids these days have no respect for their elders because they just see the world they live in as carnage. It never used to be like this.

      We don’t have that two-line information coming in. The “trusty” BBC updating us as a nation. Now we have white noise, ultra-nationalists hating each other, and world leaders who act like children.

      We can’t even allow our government to settle in and do a job. How many PMs have we gone through? They just get worse. That should be a new law in this country: if someone in a position makes a change that benefits their own business or themselves—but damages the rest of the UK or its people—then they should go to jail. “Donations”—bribes—should be outright banned. How many politicians have taken bribes from other nations to make changes to this country? Have any of them been punished for it? The UK was once an engineering, manufacturing powerhouse—and because of bribes we closed down world‑beating projects. I’m sick of it!

      All that being said, I miss the British people—the true British people who were happy. These days, when you think of a British person you imagine an over‑eager football fan waving his meat around.

      We’re scared to be ourselves because we’re all being taught to fear the same problems. We’re scared to be ourselves in case we get canceled or hated. If you look back at British comedy—the true greats—they were never afraid to open their mouths and comment on situations like this. Can you imagine what Billy Connolly would say about what’s happening in the UK? Just even a ounce of British humor, unafraid of saying something that may offend someone. When did we all become such good little lapdogs? Where’s the passion and the balls?

      Social media, AI, banning of free speech, censorship—these are all tools to punish, covertly hush the public. If you think it’s bad now, it’s only going to get worse. And we’re doing it to ourselves. Brain‑washed. Deluded. We live a short life, and everyone is allowing these huge changes to mold us into carbon copies of each other. Every post, piece of content is generated to make us waste our lives. 8k comments, 1m likes—success? My arse. When will it stop?

      And now we have AI—why is this not being banned from social media? It’s outright dangerous. It’s fraud. It’s manipulative. It’s bullying. Simply horrible.

      We only have ourselves to make a change because our government only cares about themselves—and they’re out to make themselves richer before the world goes to shit.

      Stop the hate. Let’s make the UK great again. Let’s look after each other, and teach our children better values.

      Let me know if you’d like any tweaks while keeping that authentic spark of yours intact.

    10. It’s ok if they leave they don’t live here anyway and avoid paying tax so get them out and get tax payers in

    11. Ah, you may state things like „facts“ and „logic“ like a reasonable person. But I was told by the „Billionaires are our bestest friends and are all attractive and cool and better than everyone and we must never tax them“ think tank that this will cost the economy £2913783113 bajillion every day.
