Exactly - high earners will fuck off to Dubai. -

But I don't think we want them to be boycotted, we just want them to pay tax...let's just close those loopholes. -

Going back through all this though, it is why a Wealth Tax is something they should seriously look at. The majority of wealthy owners are not as financially mobile as they would like to be. They will put up with either 4-8 years of pain as they know it'll be removed after that, so let's make hay as the sun shines and get a wealth tax sorted. -

Clearly not true, as Ralph's real estate consortium full of UK Business & Asset owners/Non Dom's are all moving to Dubai to save on Income Tax because Labour. -
I don't think he's a top flight player now TBF.

No, the point is it is money that we won't want to spend next year as we need every penny of PSR to try to be even mildly competitive.

Well, THB and Downes screwed our investments last Summer as we had to spend near on £40m to go backwards.

That's odd, because it was my understanding that those deals were not wanted as it screwed us in the Prem last year.

I'm trying to not be too hard on him - I've given him various get outs to show and explain what his issues are. The problem is he doesn't seem to understand basic politics, government strategy, and as an extension tax and how that affects the wealth of individuals and businesses, along with the social costs associated. He reminds me of me when I first came out of uni, thinking I knew it all, spouting crap about how life was all about making money and The Wealth of Nations etc. Nowadays I sit with the Theory of Moral Sentiments, but both are bedfellows, and both show that Capitalism and Socialism can live hand in hand. It is for this reason that I reject Ralph's question on what my "beliefs" are. Also, a lot of rich people are selfish twats. I'd prefer to be a champagne socialist than one of those knobbers. -

Ok, so what were you admitting to getting caught out on then? I literally posted the messages. In relation to your line of work, just a sector is all I asked for. The problem is, because you've confused and contradicted yourself so much in trying to carve out some sort of argument, I can't work out what sector you are in. Wealthy people tend to spread their wealth, which means they could be investing in multiple real estate sectors, so it would be good to know. -

Why did you admit to it then? You'd been caught out for like what, the 5th or 6th time? And what sector in real estate do you work in? -

Luckily you never insult people... Never answered this one, yet you want to know everything about us... And here is why I called you "Mr Whopper". It's because you admitted you'd been lying... -

It's actually the other way round, people tend to not want to be Capitalist as it can tend to show a lack of empathy and morals. It's why you have so many secret-Tory's. But hey, not like you to be wrong again, is it? -

You don't know what a Non-Exec does, do you? I provide independent advice, strategy and criticism (if needed) in industries in which I have experience. I don't have to be capitalist or socialist, I just have to know how it all works to be able to give sound advice. -

Such a liar - you were hanging around parks because it's the school holidays, and you didn't see one. -

I'm still trying to get us out of our position on CDs tbh. Luckily I'm also working on the real estate side, so I'm hoping Ralph will be able to help me. -

He also guessed correctly that I'm a Non-Exec for Woolworths. -

Where have I defended Labour's policies? Look, I don't need you to post links to news stories, we've all seen them, most pushed by right wing media outlets. What I have continuously asked is what Labour policies are pushing people abroad. You then cited Income Tax, which hasn't changed, and won't tend to be paid by the asset holders and investors. IHT is not now pushing people abroad, unless it's non-doms, as it's always been an issue. Why do you think I was advised in 2017 to buy a farm when I sold my business? Non-Dom rules were brought in by the Tories and refined by Labour, and I think they won't go as far as they are threatening, but honestly, I don't give a fuck about them. Perhaps if they move they will sell their property assets and this will reduce house prices. The thing about super-wealthy people is where their wealth is. If they own wealth here, then that should be taxed. If they want to fuck off and sell their wealth, again, that would be good as it should flood with supply of property and push prices down. And one last one for you this morning: https://www.ft.com/content/14420f4a-06e0-40f6-b5b1-c4e0a36565f0?fbclid=IwQ0xDSwMKdwBleHRuA2FlbQIxMQABHrN-mwO3qVnKyGrN3P88FNtnCex81byGYAH0uMHT4fi-Z3tUdhehDpFEzyRa_aem_b4SwCZfrdpRFO6U5wzzcVw -

Was that the one where you could extend your stadium as well? That was awesome if so. You could "Instant" your matches as well. -

2001/2002 is still the greatest.
