BBC in Row over Billionaire Lord Ashcroft doco
#12
Quote:The billionaire steel magnate said he would pay UK tax on his overseas earnings to comply with new laws being introduced by the government.
I doubt he would be doing this unless there was a going to be a compensatory amount somewhere else for him.
Quote:In a statement last week, the Tory peer said: "In his statement last week he said: "While the non-dom status will continue for many people in business or public life, David Cameron has said that anyone sitting in the legislature - Lords or Commons - must be treated as resident and domiciled in the UK for tax purposes. I agree with this change and expect to be sitting in the House of Lords for many years to come."
Sounds like he has plans to change this later though. Confusedmokin:
"The philosophers have only interpreted the world, in various ways. The point, however, is to change it." Karl Marx

"He would, wouldn't he?" Mandy Rice-Davies. When asked in court whether she knew that Lord Astor had denied having sex with her.

“I think it would be a good idea” Ghandi, when asked about Western Civilisation.
