        I have the right to vote, and FCO protection when travelling abroad, and it don't cost me a penny (beyond cost of passport).

          That's the point - you should be subject to punitive British personal taxation that punishes success

            Seems fair. And when the next pandemic turns up targeting 18-25 year olds, that should be the group that coughs* up. Except of course, the parents and grandparents of these ungrateful little tulips actually care about them. For some reason.

              People who will be taxed heavily are those who on one hand still have the money and on another don't contribute to the Party

                Nope.


                There is no legal right to consular assistance. All assistance provided is at our discretion.

                  They are even more explicit about those poor sods who still hold Russian passports (in addition to British one) - if you get in trouble in Russia don't even bother calling British consular services.

                    They have been scrounging and whining for decades. Banging on about the war - instead of generating wealth.

                      Renounce your Russian citizenship if it bothers you.
