I thought that people would find this interesting because let's be real the Conservatives were already planning on increasing the taxes, they were just doing it slower as with all things the 'right wingers' in the mainstream do. It's not just the high earners, anybody with the means is going to gtfo of this country while they can, I'd even consider ditching my citizenship entirely if it means I don't have to pay Labour taxes but I'm in a wait and see mode still with everything.
He has calculated that moving to Gibraltar saved him £60,000 in tax last year.
“It’s not just the super-wealthy who are fleeing. It’s people who are paying tax disproportionately.”
lol, why the fuck would you stay in the UK if you can afford to leave? Even in some of the places with higher taxes, the taxes are still lower than what the UK are going to do. What has me going though are the speech laws and the inevitable clamp down that will happen which will make it impossible for people to run a business without virtue signalling because it will be a requirement.
The capital flight is real and it's already happening, this is what I've been meaning when we don't have 5 fucking years in this country. Anybody who has the capacity to earn is fucked and the politicians are going to tax the fuck out of everybody and embezzle everything. I'm going to have to do a lot of research on tax law among other things.
Edit: The only thing I could hope for is that Labour fuck up things so badly within a year they can't implement the majority of their policies.
The same reason a resistance movement stays in occupied land. Someone's got to be there to liberate it.
This is actually a good opportunity for the right to use foreign funding and British exiles to promote political change.
Technically, my Lotus Eaters subscription counts as that since I'm American.
I am wondering about that and what the best approach is to take, it's just something you've got to think about tons and then make a decision I guess, not a very original take in the slightest but it's certainly true.
Altruism is leftist pseudo-science to try and claim that giving up your agency to someone demanding something from you is inherently, logically, rationally, moral.
That's bullshit. It's why Altruism basically doesn't exist anywhere in nature, or in human behavior, when taken to it's proper definition (not benefiting you in anyway when you do it).
Instead, you have a responsibility to gain money and power in order to cultivate a moral, integrous, and high-trust society by your actions and asserting your standards via your beneficial actions to your local community.
You remember those people who owned hotels and explicitly refused to sell out to the government for a bajillion pounds? That's the kind of thing I'm talking about.
You have a moral responsibility as someone who works in hospitality to make a small business, run it successfully with integrity, work to promote integrity and hold standards of integrity among all your employees, neighbors, and vendors. Then when the government says, "fuck the dirty gammons, I've got some browns to traffick you like sardines" you can say "eat shit, I don't want your blood money." Then you have a responsibility to not work with anyone who does that, and pay for politicians that will aid you in refuting the larger government.
You have to do that on your level somehow. Maybe you can't start a business (though it might behoove you to try). If you can't then you should explicitly refuse to work with businesses that won't share your values in making a better world. This is especially true if you have developed a skill enough to make you an important catch to someone who couldn't afford someone of your skillset normally; and you need to save enough money that you have a "fuck you money" kind of mentality.
I agree with all of that in principle, pragmatically though I've made this point that I don't see how it's possible to even operate a business in this environment without bowing to the government. I pay attention to my instincts and my instincts especially with seeing what's going on generally and how much the WEF blame the internet etc. for people hating what they do is telling me they're going for a crackdown.
The UK in particular for example are agitating to regulate podcasters through Ofcom which means a further expansion of their powers and I bet they're going to extend this to games companies as well. It's so much more basic than simply earning money it's whatever action I take is going to be monitored in this country if I stay.
So let's say for example I wanted to make a pretty authentic WW2 game which I would find quite fun to develop. I find history generally interesting and could do a pretty good job at it. Would have no problem telling the German government to go fuck itself and region block sales because I want to depict history properly and show the Nazi symbols without being a pussy.
Now though? It's all up in the air because they may come at me over Nazi imagery bullshit. Even though the Conservatives were massively cucked, they weren't necessarily actively pursuing speech and imagery laws, Labour though lulz.
Just as the libs did to seize control, you join the government bureaucracy class.

It depends on what the objective, at it's core, needs to be.
If it's the history that's important, maybe it shouldn't be a game and should be something else instead.
If it's the game that's important, then move towards fictional settings where you can use a NatSoc stand-in faction to play the game, but maintain the underlying message that could then be over-lapped onto history by people who are paying attention.
Alternatively, you could do an end-around and make the game free and unpublished, but only available to people who are members of a program or club(this is what some Amish farmers are doing with raw milk).
Theoretically, if I was behind enemy lines like that, I'd start by erasing any and all notions that I am, or was ever British. Then, I'd switch away from paypunk and/or massacard and just use monero/sanitized bitcoin. Straight up give the woke gestapo dead ends and fake news to chew on. Make it impossible for them to even find you. They want to genocide you, you don't need to pay them.

You also have to be smart enough to know a trap when you see it.
Subversion and honesty rarely go hand-in-hand.
