Is this with all NICs?

Only Employee's PRSI (NIC). Employers PRSI is an additional 10.75%. Different rules apply to certain proprietary Comapny Directors (kind of IR35-like defined).

However, CT and Entrepreneur's Relief is good if you're thinking of relocating.

Londons full of foreigners, and people whinging about foreigners. And London's surely only good if you're pretty wealthy, you're not going to find anywhere nice to live without a household income of getting on for £100k?

Some of the other cities on the list aren't cheap either e.g. Sydney due to foreigners pushing up property prices.

I must say in spite of "packed" Tube trains I would still have thought London would have made the list.

London is one of the cities that has improved the most over the last 20 years.

Not meant to be funny, think Ireland is the next India ...I think most work would be outsourced there, there will be lots of IT contracts within the next few years.

Ireland

Very funny.

Seriously looks like a great time to leave the country. But where to go? Which country wouldn't tax you to death and instead allow you to prosper and is good for kids' schooling and quality of life?

Ireland

Mainly because the weather is tulip

And they're blighted following the Cretinocalypse.

Birmingham is not in the list?

[AtW]

Yes but paying an ever-increasing amount of tax and getting an ever-decreasing level of service makes it feel like we're being taxed to death.

And after you die you'll still get taxed!!!
