Tory voters say they prefer Tory government. There’s the real headline.

thericofactor ,

That’s how you know you voted correctly.

Rivalarrival ,

Don’t let the door hit you in the ass on the way out.

I understand the hate, but that’s a very shortsighted wish. How do you tax the rich if they leave?

They are harder to tax than anyone else.

nilaus ,

They wont leave, they are just throwing a tantrum.

LifeInMultipleChoice ,

If it is income based taxing: they leave, and the demand is filled by someone else who takes their place.

Easy example: grocery store owner A says I don’t like it, moves. Obviously someone else will open a grocery store there if it is needed. They will be taxed accordingly.

What if the rich are a blight that create poverty by sucking up the capital?

jonne ,

If their assets are onshore, they’d either have to sell them or be taxed anyway. If their assets are offshore, they probably weren’t paying taxes on them anyway.

JustARaccoon ,

Take their properties (a lot of it being in housing). Not like they can leave with that.

Rivalarrival ,

How are we going to fertilize our gardens if we don’t keep our shit in a bucket next to the toilet?

The value these pieces of shit bring to the table is far less than the damages caused by the exploitative business practices that made them rich. Taxes are not a sufficient justification for keeping them around.

Don’t come to the US, please. Go and join your oligarch brethren in Moscow.

Lol, first thought I had. My company’s state president is an ex-pat from the UK and “loves America.”

JohnDClay ,

So 53% say they’re less likely to leave after the election? That seems to indicate that the candidates elected were marginally more pro millionaire than the previous ones.

explore_broaden ,

That isn’t included the percentage that didn’t change, because they aren’t interested in picking up and leaving the country just because they don’t like the government.

thetreesaysbark ,

Less likely to leave or it made no difference, I guess.

It could also be that with the previous government only 10% were considering leaving.

Like that mate that fucks off when it’s their round

This is exactly the sentiment. Kick them out and never buy for them again - leeching cunts!

MonsterMonster ,

Hollow threats. Go.

Oh, bye then.

Interesting because they’d already been leaving under the previous government.

hangonasecond ,

Ah, brexit

Cool. Enjoy seeing someone else enjoying your swanky London penthouse and your manor in the country. Maybe even let tourists go through the latter.

wewbull ,

“More likely”. So are they leaving or not? It’s easy to say that they are, but actually leaving takes effort.

nogooduser ,

Yeah. It’s a pretty meaningless statistic really.

I was definitely more likely to leave the UK after the brexit referendum than before it but I’m still here. The chances before were less than 1% and the chances after were closer to 1% but probably still didn’t exceed it.

P.s. I’m not a millionaire in case anyone is wondering.

9500 out of 150,000 are saying they’ll go. OK then. See you later I suppose.

barsquid ,

Oh no. How will UK citizens create jobs without millionaires?

Prior_Industry ,

Blah blah blah. Any hint of being taxed same thing gets rolled out. Can’t keep going like this billionaires, time to pay back into the systems you benefit from.
