Thanks to Rosie Harris -Davison and City News for the Headline
I suppose we shouldn’t berate an 84 year old Knight of the Realm and founder of a very successful taxi-cab firm for imagining that his love of all things Irish and being besotted with the Irish Republic that he was in fact entitled to be treated as a Non-Domicillary and hence avoid a £20 million tax bill from HMRC.Nice try, maybe Creative Domiciling should be added to the infamous Creative Accounting.
The man in question Sir John Griffin has lived in the UK since he was nine years old.Being born in England of Irish parents
HMRC has won it’s case ,Sir John has lived and brought up his family in the UK that he will have to pay the tax on his income from foreign investments since 2013.
Beats me how people don’t understand that public services that they use have to be financed by the rich as well as the poor.
Namaste and Thank You for Reading 🙏
