That’s OK then!

Birmingham's benefits bill: £4.1bn. Annual cost of operating the UK's nuclear deterrent: ~£3.7bn.

Despite the fact the tool pulls from the governments official data. Nice.

Stop moving the goalposts and answer. £2.5-£4.5billion annually is now being lost, because of the changes. Historical churn has risen from 4% on average, to 12-16% this year How does the void get filled? -

Estimated losses: £1.5-2.5billion per year in direct losses. Low estimate. £1-2bn in CGT SDLT losses: £400-500mil VAT: £300-600mil Just from these departures, not even factoring in the exponential curve of wealthy people leaving as the country declines I ask again, how, in your fantasy land where wealth doesn’t matter, do you intend to fill this void? -

Sure, pal. Tell me - if £100bns in capital and billions in tax revenues are upping sticks, how will the goverment continue to fund their relentless expansion of the welfare state? You obviously don’t see it as an issue at all, so how do you intend to fill the void? -

Are you really trying to equate punishing fraud with a punishingly high tax regime? -

LOL. Man who thinks billionaires “don’t pay any taxes” trying to pretend he has won a debate. Not a serious person at all. -

The wider point I was making is that the UK is increasingly seen as hostile to businesses and entrepreneurs. If you don’t think these people leaving is a disaster for the country, then you’re not a serious person. Which you obviously aren’t. -
I’m guessing you’re ok with the welfare bill going up 20-30% per annum in some places then?
-
Useful tool here, created by the taxpayers alliance, allows you to check the benefits and welfare bill costs by area: https://benefitsdata.uk/mybill Some of the data is absolutely shocking. Taxpayers are being completely fleeced.

You know as well as I that it’s very difficult to predict an exact figure. The average income tax paid is £120-150k per departing non-dom. From that, economists predict at least £2bn, but then you can add in Stamp duty losses, CGT losses, VAT losses etc. etc. Plus there is the very real implication that the UK is now seen as a punitive place to do business globally. -

“weren’t paying any tax” So they didn’t own any property, buy any products, go to any restaurants, employ any staff then? -

You are not a serious person. Do you honestly believe that billionaires pay very little in taxes here? -

Do you need me to explain it to you? I was thinking you’d look into it and do some learning. But it appears I overestimated you -

No, that was a fact based on his posts -

You really do struggle with reading, don’t you. It wasn’t me that hurled insults 😂. I was just responding in kind. -

A lot. Think of all the money they would spend. I would propose we make the country attractive to live in, instead of punishing success. -

So your argument is that billionaires won’t spend any money here? -

As usual, another high IQ input from you. If you had an IQ above 60, you’d realise that billions of pounds worth of job-creators fleeing, to be replaced by illegal migrants, won’t fund the NHS or your socialist paradise. Who do you think will end up footing the bill? -

This isn’t a binary. The point is that a sensible nation makes themselves attractive enough that the wealthy stay, and boost the economy. Study the Laffer curve and you’ll begin to understand this dynamic -

The number of billionaire residents in the UK apparently halved in the last 6 years. And in 2025 alone, 16.500 millionaires left the UK as well. This is the biggest wealth exodus a country has ever recorded. It’s 2 times bigger than China's. -

Laffer curve in action. $160bn has left the UK (so far): Funny, I was told by the genius Labour voters that this wouldn’t happen. Good luck replacing their tax receipts. Just the start as well. This on the same day that the USA has to pull its bombers out of our military bases because they fear we are incapable of defending them. What a fucking joke of a country
