  1. Nothing we can do about it? How about changing policy direction! Contrary to your unevidenced assumption, we now have the lowest number of millionaires in the uk for the past two decades with a key factor being their emigration, due to government policy. https://www.adamsmith.org/press-releases/number-of-uk-millionaires-at-lowest-level-since-global-financial-crisis .
  2. You dont need to reduce it to £100k PA for them to stay, both the Tories and Labour needed to make the conditions more favourable. People that are established within a country dont want to leave unless they feel forced to and the balance of pros and cons is tilted to the extent that they decide they need to leave. Its never as black and white as saying we must match Greece. The subsequent responses to @Osvaldorama are deflecting from the point he is making because people dont want to face the reality of the impact of left leaning policies like this. Calling them 'greedy bastards' is just immature when you will start to likely see a loss in tax revenue and, notwithstanding that, investment in our country from those people. It already has and will continue to result in tax rises for the remaining net givers and businesses who will have to (again) shoulder the burden, further disincentivising them. The whole strategy is very poorly thought out, despite having been proven again and again in other countries that taxing the wealthy does not to work in terms of increased tax revenues. Maybe those that support these policies could dip into their own pockets to fund the shortfall and save the rest of us the pain. Anyway, I thought we werent losing billionaires and millionaires anyway so this conversation surely isnt happening 🤣
  3. The “magic money tree”
  4. Not really - I produce information that supports what I say. You make childish comments and provide no information to support your childish comments
  5. So what about all the other billionaires and the second article? Also why did he decide to move now and not before (I’m not aware the Swiss tax regime has become more favourable than before) at a similar time to lots of others - is that just an unhappy coincidence? Also what about his comment regarding other billionaires leaving? John Fredrikson: He then relocated his empire to Dubai, joining a growing exodus of billionaires seeking the UAE's tax-friendly environment. And with one final parting shot, he told newspaper outlets that "Britain has gone to hell".
  6. It was called the 2008 financial crisis
  7. The richest billionaires who have left Britain Yes only 1 billionaire! See article for some of the more high profile that have left and their reasons why."...The German-born investor has now relocated to Switzerland, joining the wave of wealthy financiers fleeing the UK. Reflecting on his decision to go, Angermayer said: "Every non-dom I know has left, or is about to leave"...". At the end of July it was reported that the number of millionaires in the UK has fallen to its lowest level is two decades. Are the rich leaving the UK due to high taxes?

  8. My opinion is they are a similar ability. It would be unusual for someone of Ramsdales profile to remain at the club and not play at all. Peretz is there on merit but if he has a wobble I’d be surprised if Ramsdale didn’t get a call up in that scenario
  9. I’m surprised ramsdale will still be here and that we wouldn’t play him
  10. Odds on Everton to go down have tumbled!
  11. Scholterback made a massive difference. Seemed to give the team more confidence knowing we had someone at the back who we can rely on
  12. I think he’s done well. Got lots of balls into the box
  13. Bragg is non existent. We have no control and that’s his main job
  14. Very surprised there is no interest in ramsdale. I reckon we will have to loan him and subsidise part of his wages.
  15. Only 1 year left in contract too. Can’t watch another year of him
  16. If they offered nothing it would be acceptable
  17. Less than £1m. Does anyone know if they still owe installments on him? If they do I assume they would have been written off
  18. Please obligation to buy
  19. Bidding war. Villa should have ageeed a few earlier
  20. I did. He celebrates in front of their fans for one goal and his teammates for the others. Didn’t see anything usual
  21. Looking for something that isn’t there
  22. Football is about opinions. In my opinion JWP on a free or nominal fee is a good replacement at our level for Charles, even though he isn’t as good (we don’t have £30m to spend). It sounds like we could get preferential terms from JWP in terms of his contract because of his affiliation with the club. I would say it would be poor on our part if we weren’t interested. Subject to the finances of the agreement it would mean that we can save upfront payments for transfer fees and reinvest elsewhere. Your last point doesn’t merit a response but we should be in for Adam Webster on a free
