Chappers

Long thread! A remain supporter has asked why I am pro-Brexit.  Whether it was a genuine question or not, I thought it was something worth answering properly. Twitter probably doesn’t lend itself to such an open question, but if anyone’s interested, here goes…

@TheFreeWorldOrg @Politax3 @churchosaj @ActionBrexit @Nigel_Farage All the rules within the Anti Tax Avoidance Directive were already UK law and remain UK law. The UK's legislation is more robust than anything required by the EU. This is widely known. Talking about other people's ignorance makes you look an idiot I'm afraid.

@Politax3 @churchosaj @ActionBrexit @Nigel_Farage You’re talking complete bullshit, time to wake up a smell the coffee.

HOW COME OUR COUNTRY IS BANKRUPT AND IN DEBT FOR £2.9 TRILLION YET THE ELITE POLITICAL RULING CLASS ARE MAKING MILLIONS?

You didn't though, did you?

@wendlingere49 @dave43law You block people for saying this, but you're simply a liar. You know this isn't true, almost everyone knows it isn't true by now. What can you possibly gain? More people will know you're a liar. There's no evidence he is anything other than a British citizen and taxpayer.

@dave43law The problem is that like Brexit Farage did not lose his EU citznshp.He failed to get German but ended up getting Belgium Citznshp, where he pays lower taxes than here.Leaving the ECHR will not affect Farge or Badenoch, just the rest of us.

To just explain the performative art of Farage

@wendlingere49 @LizWebsterSBF @WendyNowak No they weren't.

@LizWebsterSBF @WendyNowak There were NO advantages to Brexit, except it allows rich men to stash their millions off shore without needing to declare it to the tax man.The EU were about to bring in a law that would make it against EU law not to declare money for tax.

Brexit is like deciding to have termites in your house. How do you take advantage of termites?

@DArbusTree @wendlingere49 @LizWebsterSBF @WendyNowak Except it's not is it? It's a lie.

@wendlingere49 @LizWebsterSBF @WendyNowak Correct. Its extraordinary that in 2015 2016 this was well known thanks to people like Carole Cadwallder and yet not made a thing of enough at the time. When people want to follow the leader off the cliff its hard to arrest the momentum.

@MrsP1001 @georgebernhard @dave43law The Hamburg police confirmed no such thing. Made up nonsense designed to deceive the ridiculously gullible.

@georgebernhard @dave43law He doesn't qualify but still tried. He was seen at the German embassy in London and Hamburg police confirm an application was made. skwawkbox.org/2019/04/23/far…

Don't forget Farage will play the Starmer speech like a fiddle He will have his minions screaming and the cult echo chamber raging He needs you - to forget the Clacton house - to forget Nathan Gill This is his Epstein file moment #Farage Share wildly

@grok @JynnyJames @DrStrangetwit Come on @grok . You should be able to verify beyond any doubt that he is UK resident and domiciled for tax purposes.

After searching, there's no confirmed evidence that Nigel Farage holds a Belgian passport. He is a British citizen and a resident of Belgium, where he pays taxes. His children have German passports via their mother, but reports indicate his own application for German citizenship was rejected.

Führage whingeing about hurty words when his gutter politics has consistently poisoned this country for years. The sheer chutzpah of this toad, even right wing commentators are bemused by him. Stochastic terrorism and continual incitement from Mr #FarageRiots @Nigel_Farage

@LizWebsterSBF @Ryderback3 @tzanninis Again, as you know, or should know, the UK's tax avoidance legislation is already tougher than anything required by the EU.

Brexit was always only a good idea for wealthy elite speculation and wealth consolidation. They also escaped the EU’s tax avoidance measures. Brexit delivered three concrete advantages for the wealthy elite: 1. Speculation on Crisis •Currency volatility, land sell-offs, and regulatory shocks = prime opportunities for hedge funds and private equity. •Farmers, SMEs, and workers absorbed the risk, while financiers shorted the pound or bought distressed assets. 2. Land & Asset Consolidation •Removal of EU protections (like CAP structures and some state aid rules) opened the door to fire-sale farming land and other UK assets. •Inheritance tax reform (APR/BPR changes) is part of that story, forcing family farms to sell while corporates/foreign investors hoover up. 3. Escape from EU Tax Justice •The EU’s Anti-Tax Avoidance Directive (2016) and work on a Common Consolidated Corporate Tax Base aimed to stop profit-shifting and secrecy jurisdictions. •🇬🇧 elites didn’t want to be trapped in a European system designed to close loopholes. •By leaving, they kept Britain aligned with the Caymans, BVI, Jersey, Guernsey, Isle of Man model protecting offshore flows.

🚨 James Dyson says: “Even if you’re worse off, it’s better to make your own decisions”. But Brexit wasn’t about *our* decisions, it was about his and he isn’t poorer. Dyson wanted freedom for billionaires to do what they like, pay less tax and shrug off rules that never stopped them trading across the world anyway. 👉 The result? Britain is poorer, families are struggling and small businesses face more red tape, while Dyson still sells into Europe and runs his HQ from Singapore. Dyson pushed a decision that worked only for super rich, and left everyone else carrying the cost. Brexit means 👉 Independence for billionaires to dodge EU investigations into tax avoidance. 👉 Freedom for the super-rich to set their own rules, while the rest of us face food inflation, red tape & weaker rights. Brexit was sold as taking back control. In truth, it was billionaires taking control and ordinary people paying the price.

@LizWebsterSBF @Bagoman3 The EU "clamped down" on tax avoidance by implementing rules the UK already had. If anything, the EU turbo-charged tax avoidance by allowing competitive tax regimes, like Ireland, to operate within a system which insists on non-discrimination. politax.com/post/was-brexi…

Yes, Ireland was used by multinationals like Apple to funnel profits and dodge UK tax. But let’s be clear: Brexit didn’t stop tax avoidance, it turbocharged it. The EU at least tried to clamp down. Post-Brexit, billionaires like Dyson pushed for “independence” so they could escape scrutiny altogether. Brexit was about making it easier for the super-rich while the rest of us were left poorer.

@wendlingere49 @nw_nicholas Seriously. Why do you do this? Do you think such obvious lies hurt Farage?

@nw_nicholas But Farage has failed to get German Ctzshp but managed to get Belgium.So has freedom to move around Europe.

And if you're wondering if it's personal, it is. I have a gf in the Netherlands and can only stay with her 90 days in a year, thanks to Farage.

@wendlingere49 @nw_nicholas These are lies, and you know they're lies. You're an adult FGS!

@nw_nicholas Farage has Belgium Citznshp & shares a property with Ferrari in Brussels.He obviously does operate outside UK.

There are 3 shell companies involving Farage's girlfriend, his project director from Brussels & her banker friend. None of them traded. These are all massive red flags for a money laundering operation. Farage can't officially receive donations from abroad, I'm sure he does.

@Utdtruthful @sistoney67 That would be just embarrassing. Just let it go. It's not like they brought on Yamal and he scored both goals.

🚨 Manchester United have been informed that they have 5 days to decide whether they want to appeal the decision of Grimsby fielding an ineligible player during the Carabao Cup match. #MUFC [@sistoney67]

@CarolynEley2 @RichardGCorbett @mikegalsworthy @mrjamesob @owenjonesjourno @ReformParty You surely know this isn't true by now? I think you're simply dishonest. As is the guy that wrote the book.

@NolanJazimreg @RichardGCorbett @mikegalsworthy @mrjamesob @owenjonesjourno Just read this and it’s so alarming. How the UK is being sold out by tax avoiding billionaires. @ReformParty is just their willing slave!! Brexit was a mainly Russia funded plot to avoid EU curb on tax avoidance . Johnson, May, Truss all knew this yet still complied.

A heartfelt thank you to @RichardGCorbett, @mikegalsworthy, @mrjamesob & @owenjonesjourno for supporting this modest campaign aimed at exposing Farage' s tax avoidance scam known as Brexit by turning this book into a bestseller.

🚨🟡🔴 AS Roma submit official bid to Manchester United to sign Jadon Sancho. Permanent move for £20m offered while club’s also open to loan with buy clause. Decision up to Manchester United and Sancho’s camp. 🔀 AS Roma, in contact with both Sancho and Bailey.

Are they gullible? Dim? Or just dishonest? What are these accounts trying to achieve?

🚨 Manchester United closing in on deal to sign Benjamin Sesko from RB Leipzig. #RBLeipzig accepted €82.5m + €2.5m bid from Newcastle United but 22yo striker wants #MUFC. No club-to-club agreement yet but talks advancing towards conclusion @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/65372…

@WorLiamReports @Adoptedgeordie3 Elvis. Erik to his mates, eh?

@Adoptedgeordie3 Seskos agent.

Erik u sneaky little fucking twat.

@richardajkeys "Senior football anchor".

United won’t get Sesko because they don’t have the money. It’s incredible how far they’ve fallen. And sad. Let’s hope the money spent on Mbeumo proves worth it. He’s an all or nothing gamble.

@adilangley @WorLiamReports @NUFCFLIGHTS1892

@WorLiamReports @NUFCFLIGHTS1892 What happens when he signs for Man Utd then? You've been adamant all along that he is going to be a Newcastle player but Man Utd have now placed their bid which trumps anything you've said so far

Sesko and his agent are at Newcastle today to finalise personal terms and then medical per (@NUFCFLIGHTS1892) #NUFC

@David_Ornstein @TheAthleticFC Omar Berrada has arrived.

🚨 BREAKING: Manchester United make offer to RB Leipzig for Benjamin Sesko. Proposal €75m + €10m - reflects #MUFC valuation of 22yo & they believe striker favours Old Trafford. No reply yet from #RBLeipzig. #NUFC also working to close deal @TheAthleticFC nytimes.com/athletic/65252…
