  4. Not likely. They will look at the conservatives of today just as we look at Bull Conner from yesterday.

  6. Really? Care to enlighten me how you managed to arrive at this momentous conclusion? Was it smth I said which didn't agree with your delicate constitution? Or maybe you need help with some of them big words which have eluded your understanding? I am happy to help, 'cause that's just the kinda generous guy I am.

  7. While I'm certain it's momentous to you, you're rather trivial to me.

  10. Well, there's a few things which I could list, but their value is ultimately subjective...

    For me personally, there's very few places in the world where I can do what I do. Of these places, the UK is best, in my view, and 50% tax is the price I am willing to pay. I have considered other places, where tax regimes are much more attractive, but they all have their own issues.
