   Does She oppose people going to the UK to work with working visas ?

She rants about Muslims/Islam and all of a sudden she’s living in Dubai, I wonder, will she convert?

 

Stranger things have happened.

I don’t think it’s correct to say most millionaires pay no tax, but the range of tax avoidance schemes available to the rich provide ample opportunity for taxes to be massively reduced.

 

Buying farms to avoid inheritance tax is an example.

The meager tax they pay may as well be no tax. 

 

I did use the words "their fair share."  I accept "some" tax may be paid, but nowhere near what they should be paying.

 

Even the royals were mentioned in The Paradise Papers.

Inheritance tax ( IHT ) is probably the major factor here . Is it fair that some people just take from the system and contribute little if anything , whilst others pay many millions in tax ?

There should be a cap on the amount anybody has to pay in tax over their lifetime , maybe based on the average salary .

This was a famous case in my country, Australia, many years ago. 

 

When it hit the media and the community found out Australia's richest man paid no tax, every working Australian changed from seeing paying tax as doing their bit to benefit the country, to wanting to pay no tax as well.

It's become a policy platform for a minor party in recent times.

"For years the Liberal and Labor parties have given billionaires and big corporations special treatment, to the point where now 1 in 3 of those companies pay no tax."

 

Can you provide some links showing that billionaire pay their fair share of tax?
