    Anywhere... doesnt need to be a tax haven, just not cold wet and overtaxed. So Wales would still be out on the first two, and probably the last assuming they lower the headline rate by 1 or 2 percent.

    I've lived over there for 10 years and rarely go 'above' the M4 ... it's bandit country up there.
    Doesn't count what a load of tripe, we refer to them as Valley commando's lol. I don't think it helped that I'm a shade darker than caramel, so I stood out a fair bit at first but I guess they're used to me now and no longer think I'm going to rob them.

    Considering how desperate the english are to leave wales, they'd be driving far too fast over the bridge in order to collect a toll..

    A relative had police and social services colluding with her neighbours to try and persuade her to move out of her little village in north wales

    It was cleverly done to appear like incompetence, but the intention was clear

    Reminds me of a joke we used to tell when I was young:

    English people buy a home in Wales and come home to a real fire (when the locals set fire to it)

    Doubt it's changed much.
