I'm afraid that's where your wrong. I totally despise tax exiles but in reality they make up a very small amount of missing revenue. Companies are a different matter and do make a difference.
However like it or not there are only a few dozen Bransons and millions of us, roughly 30 million.
If everyone of us paid what we owed thet NHS would be a lot better off.
If everyone of us paid a pound a week extra tax that's 15 billion a year extra for the NHS.It's that simple.
We can blame whoever we like but it's us who needs the NHS not the rich. We need to stop this sence of entitlement we have and accept responsibility for ourselves instead of blaming others. We all need a sense of priority rich and poor and both are as bad. Just because you're poor it doesn't mean you're disolved of any responsbility far from it. In fact that's how they get you and that's how they keep us down.
A copper on tv once said that every knock off dvd, packet of fags or pair of trainers that people buy was a criminal act for which there were no excuses. Because, he said they all led back to organised crime and becuase of that somwhere people were suffering dreadfully or worse dying - just so you could keep up with the Joneses.
Same applies to government, if we don't pay what's needed in taxes the private sector who are often suited criminals will fill the void and buy off politicians. Thats exactly whats happened here.
We need to bring Box to book but our Cas compatriots wont bin him because it doesn't affect them and sadly we'd be just the same if the boot were on the other foot.
All very sad and predictable which is why Box will get away with it.
