We’ve all heard of UK immigration being high but did you know that the number of people leaving the UK is also very high. In particular the people a country would most want to keep - entrepreneurs, investors, innovators and the highly skilled. They are leaving in their thousands. Adjusted for population the UK has lost more wealthy people than any country - by a mile! The average earner in the top 1% earns £360k per year. They pay £160,000 in tax. They pay the same as about 25 average earners. These people are leaving because of high taxes. You can see it by the places that are booming. It’s a very mobile world for those at the top. Especially young talented people. Most of those that don’t own houses or have kids are gone. The people arriving aren’t high earners. The people leaving are. It’s a vicious circle now.
