Sir James and his wife have reportedly become Singapore permanent residents, according to the Business Times | |

Get behind your country... on 15:25 - Jul 11 with 811 views | factual_blue | 'Singapore follows a single-tier corporate tax system, where tax paid by a company on its profits is not imputed to the shareholders (i.e. dividends are tax free). Singapore personal tax rates start at 0% and are capped at 22% (above S$320,000) for residents and a flat rate of 15% to 22% for non-residents.' So james will, as a permanent resident, draw a salary of S$320,00. As will his wife. He will take the rest of his income as dividends. I hope he's remembered to change his will to make sure he's buried in Singapore and not the UK. | |

On top of all you mentioned, he also made a wonderful speech about the virtues of manufacturing in Britain, sayiing how important it was to make stuff in Britain, and moved his manufacturing to the far east. Tim Martin might be a grade A dick, but for my money James Dyson beats him in the business brexit w@nkery stakes. | |
