Two immigrants top relevant Sunday Times list for most UK tax paid, as "patriot" multi-billionaire Ratcliffe lives as an immigrant in Monaco, to protect wealth so vast it is unspendable, while whining about immigrant UK care workers and NHS cleaners not pulling their weight.
FUCK RIGHT OFF, "SIR".

Problem with people like Ratcliffe, Dyson et al, is they're isolated from reality, they really think they speak for the people, and no one close to them has the balls to call them a stupid old cunt and punch them in the fucking face.
