🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧☕️🫖💷 The Billionaire in Monaco Telling Britain What to Do. The man who tried to put a secret gagging order on everyone in UK through a private court and lost. He applied for stilts for his home because he knows the environmental damage he is causing creates floods. He owns Manchester United and he seems not to like foreigners and pays £0 tax in the UK… The Billionaire in Monaco Lecturing Britain While Britain Foots the Bill Sir Jim Ratcliffe gets treated like a national oracle. He says something and it becomes a story. He offers an opinion and it is framed as common sense. He is presented as a serious voice on what Britain should do next. That deference is the mistake. Because the first thing that matters about Ratcliffe is not his “straight talking”. It is where he chose to live for tax. In 2020 he moved his personal tax residence to Monaco. Monaco does not levy personal income tax. HMRC does not publish individual tax returns, so there is no official public number for Ratcliffe’s personal UK tax bill in 2025. Nobody outside HMRC can prove a figure. What can be said is simpler and more damning. He put himself outside the UK personal income tax system in the year people were still absorbing the cost of everything that system has to pay for. Before Monaco he was one of the UK’s biggest taxpayers. The reported figure from the Sunday Times tax list for 2017 to 2018 was about £110 million. Then he left. This is the core contradiction. Britain is expected to treat him as a patriot industrialist while he has legally chosen not to be part of the basic national deal that keeps the country functioning. The deal is simple. People who live here pay into the system that keeps the roads open, the hospitals running, the regulators staffed, the emergency services funded, the flood defences repaired, the courts operating and the local councils able to clean up the mess. Ratcliffe opted out of that deal personally. Then the public is told to trust him on the environment, on energy, on what Britain needs. His wealth is built on the petrochemical business. INEOS is not a quaint manufacturing success story. It is a fossil fuel and plastics empire. That matters because fossil fuel extraction and petrochemicals push costs outward. The profit stays private. The damage and the management of that damage is socialised. When pollution happens, it is regulators who investigate, prosecute and monitor. That apparatus is paid for by taxpayers. When industrial plants need state support to keep running, the support comes from taxpayers. When climate impacts worsen and flood risk rises and infrastructure gets hit and councils need emergency spending, that is taxpayers again. Now look at what the UK has already handed to INEOS. In late 2025 the UK government announced a support package of over £120 million for INEOS at Grangemouth tied to keeping the ethylene plant running and protecting jobs. Separate reporting has said chemical companies owned by Ratcliffe received up to £70 million of UK state aid over the 2022 to 2025 period. This is the picture. Public money, private relocation. Then there is the countryside. INEOS pushed hard for UK shale. It built a huge portfolio of licences and talked about fracking as though the public should accept rigs, traffic and landscape change as the price of modern life. When people resisted, INEOS did not just argue its case in the open. It went to court. In 2017 INEOS pursued wide injunctions aimed at restricting protest including against “persons unknown”. The civil liberties point was obvious. A private corporation was trying to create a legal perimeter around itself that could chill lawful protest. The Court of Appeal later narrowed the approach in the related challenges and the episode became a symbol of corporate power testing how far it could go. That matters because it shows instinct. Not persuasion. Containment. Now add the personal hypocrisy that sticks in the throat.

Superb from Burnham telling tax dodging Jim Ratcliffe where to stick it...

Oh, the grand old Duke of York, He had 12 million quid. He gave it to someone he'd never met, For something he never did.

Reforms star speaker was a mother who urged others to burn people alive in a hotel. Labours , a mother who has fought for justice for 97 people unlawfully killed at a football match, including her own son. Guess which one @skynews decided wasn't worth listening to?

Pls buy or at least share this. This year (our 5th!) has been hardest yet with the expense of having to relocate and prices of ingredients and bottles and printing going up and up. We try and be transparent and not pass it on to you. 🧡

If I’m being honest, I’m feeling pretty crap about my small business. It’s so bloody difficult at the moment with rising costs, US tariffs, Brexit nonsense and the threat of AI. Please have a look at what I do and retweet to spread the word gailmyerscough.co.uk
