This is such a shit take.

Non Dom status is in theory to allow people who are not living here permanently - by definition: Non Domiciled - to not have to pay UK tax. The idea is that it allows foreign investors / visitors to come here without overly onerous tax treatment. The rules are complex but for most people to qualify you have to live here for less than 90 days a year.

How on earth can the wife of a long-standing MP now chancellor who lives in a flat in downing street qualify as 'non dom'. Everything wrong with uk tax law is summed up in this case.

It may well be legit - but it will be legit because of loopholes built into the system and friends in the right places ensuring the rules are applied in a way that benefits the rich and powerful.

Why should anyone pay double tax? I have no issue that she should pay the relevant tax in one location. As you rightly point out it’s a perfectly legitimate process and I can see no moral justification that the British should benefit to the detriment of India.

‘They’re just like us aren’t they’?
While some couples in this great nation sit down and work out how much money they have left to try to feed and clothe the children, some others can sit down and work out which is the most effective tax regime to keep as much of their huge wealth as they can.
For a government that is led by a clown who is more interested in image and dressing up like a soldier/policeman/world leader and trying to look the part, how does he and his gang think this looks?
Maybe they don’t give a shit.

Utter tripe. For her to not be consider non dom she would have to sever all ties with India - she is an Indian citizen paying Indian taxes. This money never arrives in the UK yet somehow you think we are entitled to tax it. Let alone the moral point that would deprive India of much needed income - you know a country with real poverty not relative poverty. But so long as we British are alright Jack eh?

Great point
Would the Indians be up in arms if she paid tax here
Just political point scoring
but remember India had no foodbanks or poverty, just the UK

‘The tories’
Meaning anyone who doesn’t agree with you
Maybe people can have an opinion on something yet not let it impact on who to vote for
Maybe you think one think on brexit, another on foodbanks, something else on tax, trans rights,
There isn’t a team you have to support. Just have your own opinion

Because her husband is Chancellor of UK

She lives here full time, she has to or he wouldn’t have passed the security clearance required to fill his role in cabinet.

The chancellor benefits from her nondom status by sharing her wealth and the trappings of that wealth, jetting off to their palm beach mansion recently I believe.

He’s got no legitimacy to raise taxes when he’s directly benefitting from his wife being non-dom.

I’m an advocate of Low Taxes personally but that’s beyond the pale.

Which I have.

I was noting posters who had reappeared on thread who are out and proud Tories.

The ones that spew disgust as so called welfare scroungers but find it perfectly acceptable for their lords and masters to do it.

Socialism isn't a dirty word if your rich.

The reality is she quite clearly lives here and not in India and has taken advantage of a tax dodging loophole to pay zero uk tax on earnings. She lives in a tax payer funded flat and her husband can claim back practically all their living expenses. Our taxes pay for her life style.

Its morally wrong.

This bit is going to be wild speculation but I bet she pays fuck all tax in India.

Lighten up!
I’m guessing like most of the people on here you ain’t close to starving.
I suspect those who may be are probably doing other things with their time.
Waiting for you to start the revolution

why would she? She doesn't live there - she doesn't holiday there - there is no indication she and her husband ever intend going to live there - as is pointed out a passport is not an indicator of domicile

Why bother, people are too lethargic nowadays, and the left have gone soft.

You will never see a revolution in this country as it requires violent insurection and just look at that soft **** corbyn a lot idolise, hasn't got a revolutionary bone in his body.
 
The issue here is Sunak funneling his cash through her to avoid paying tax, much like many a tory or big business setting up overseas.

A loop hole that badly needs closing but never will

If the money was earned here I totally agree with paying tax
If not then I’m not bothered
If she broke the law fuck her, if not leave her alone.
