The UK’s movers and shakers are grossly overtaxed – which is why they are quitting the country in droves.
The anti-business agenda of successive government's is driving the UK economy into the ground.

If the judgement of so many Cambridge University professors is so bad when it comes to Arday the marathon man, how can we trust their judgement over neuroscience or imperial history or whatever it is they are deemed to be the experts on?
The Spanish PM, Pedro Sánchez, is reportedly mouthing off about France and Italy tightening their borders in response to his inaction in Ceuta.
Typical socialist: blame others while you're being proved inadequate.
Pretending, as some did after an Islamist drove into a Pride crowd in Berlin last weekend, that the real threat to life in Europe today is the “far right”, is to spectacularly, wilfully, crassly, miss the point.
My latest monologue.
The Church of England led the world to abolition. It is arguably the single greatest practical Anglican achievement. You can’t find a single word to say about that?
They're not "migrants". Migrants go to an embassy, apply for a visa, wait their turn and then come when they're allowed.
These people are *illegally* entering a European country. Given that Europe has no borders within it, they are effectively entering all of Europe illegally. And from there, since Britain won't enforce our borders either they can come here.
I really hate the language that people sometimes use when discussing these issues but 50 THOUSAND people coming into a country illegally in a day can only be described truthfully with one word: invasion.
These people are invading our countries against our will. If you're someone who is really concerned about the "rise of the far right", you should be calling and actively working for this to be dealt with with extreme urgency. Because if liberals don't police the borders, fascists will.
A similar number of criminals enter the UK every year on small boats. And these are a tiny proportion of the total number of illegal entrants/overstayers.
Sometimes, we need footage to help us visualise the numbers.
No one should be surprised at this news. The Government has said to energy companies, we don't want you, and they have responded in kind.
And so tax revenues and jobs will flow abroad while Britain becomes more exposed to international geopolitical developments. Massive own goal.
Cabinet Office minister Lou Haigh says Tory and Reform mayors will not be able to use new freedoms to hand tax rebates to local people and businesses. Devolution only goes so far…
This is a deadly serious ‘wake up call’.
Britain needs to compete - for energy, capital and talent - but the government carries on regulating, putting up taxes and deterring investment.
Labour simply don’t understand business
Spain is engulfed in a migration crisis with 50,000 illegal immigrants entering Ceuta in just 24 hours
The Spanish government should expel them straight back to Morocco and certainly not allow any onto the Spanish mainland
If these illegal immigrants do make it to Spain then the EU’s borderless Schengen zone means there is nothing to stop them coming straight to Calais and trying to get a migrant boat across the channel here
Spain’s border crisis could rapidly become our border crisis
That’s why the Conservative policy is to leave the ECHR enabling all illegal immigrants to be deported with a week or arrival - with no asylum claim, no human rights claim and no court hearing Then illegal immigrants like these circulating in Europe wouldn’t bother to cross to the UK
It's no surprise that Switzerland is number 1.
I'm currently in Zurich and have been travelling around the area (Zug, Thurgau, Luzern). It is paradise on earth.

Spain announced an amnesty for illegal immigrants earlier this year. This is the logical consequence. Soft borders and a virtual absence of meaningful immigration controls are a pull factor for all this.
