High tax doesn’t just take a slice of your profit. It marks down the price of your entire company. UK companies are worth less than US companies because they operate within a more burdensome system. Here’s the part politicians and wealth tax campaigners miss: a valuation is based on future after-tax returns. Crank up the tax and regulatory drag, and the same business with the same revenue, same team, same customers is simply worth less here than it would be across the Atlantic. So a buyer sitting in a lighter regime can pay more than any domestic owner ever could, and still walk away with a better return. The high-tax economy doesn’t become a fortress. It becomes the bargain bin. The longer it runs, the worse the spiral. The best assets drift into foreign hands. Profits get routed out to wherever the rate is kindest. UK Founders exit to US acquirers. All future growth and profit is on their books. This isn’t theory, I see it happening regularly. A British company worth $100m will be worth $130m on the balance sheet of an American company. The state thinks it’s squeezing capital harder. What it’s actually doing is discounting the whole country and putting it on the shelf for someone else to buy. You don’t tax your way to wealth. You tax your way to being foreign owned.

As a new Farmer myself who bought our farm 4 years ago, I can’t tell you how accurate Clarkson’s Farm actually is! We spent £3.5m buying our farm and subsequently in the past 4 years we’ve had to spend at least £527,000 on farm machinery and much, much more on running the farm. We’ve lost money every year since so far, and have had challenges or refusal from local authorities everytime we’ve tried to diversity, or do something to generate extra income. I cannot stress how difficult it is for farmers who have to rely on farming for their only income. We don’t get any subsidies or BPS payments at all (because we’re new farmers) and the grant system might as well be in Greek! As a CEO and professional businessman of some note, I felt I could easily apply for the grants myself. I kid you not, you’ve never seen a more complicated form - for ANYTHING! The farm we bought had been in the same family for 3 generations, but it was sold because it was getting tougher to support the farmers growing family and now I’ve been in it for 4 years I can see why. It’s a crying shame that more and more food is going to be imported and more skills lost because, for some unknown reason, the government obviously don’t value farmers. Sad.
