You will retain your entitlement to state pension.

I am forced to work through an umbrella company by most of my employers, which usually charge about 100 a month to invoice the employer and pay me via PAYE. I already pay a tax rate of 55.8% (40% tax rate + 2% employee NI + 13.8% employer NI) to 60.8% (45% rate), now this horrific government propose that I'm not 'a working person', and that i have 'broad shoulders' and that it should be 57.8 - 62.8% tax rate.
I can't really be bothered any more - Once a govt starts taking more than half your wage, there isn't a ton of incentive to take a stressful contract...

Many of the brave and determined either left for better lives in the colonies, or died in the WW brother wars. We are the mostly the descendants of those who kept their head down and who stayed.

Only 6% of Adult males died in WWI. Plenty came back many shell-shocked but fertile.
Far fewer died in WWII despite the blitz - in my case both of my Grandfathers that were significant contributors to the war effort were alive when I was born.
One grandfather even managed to produce offspring before the war. I suspect being shipped out to war increased marriages and impregnations.

Its a subject we all perhaps need to learn more about. There are zero benefits to living here and the negatives get bigger everyday, and will no doubt become huge on Wednesday.
Don't the double taxation rules mean you are only taxed on your income in the country you were resident in?

You will retain your entitlement to state pension. Though I know this is more complicated in that some countries it will continue to increase (triple lock increases) as it does here, in others it is frozen at time you left. Thailand is frozen for example, and America it continues to increase.Comment
