Now the rats are jumping ship
Matrin Sorrell’s advertising group, WPP, are the latest major British company to say it is actively considering a relocation for tax reasons outside the UK. Even Astra Zenica are refusing to rule out a move.
Alastair Darling has said he is now reviewing UK tax policy. He could save a lot of time by getting Sir David Varney to recommend a lower rate for Northern Ireland. With speculation that his report may be published today, the British Government has never had a better opportunity to pilot a low corporation tax zone within the UK which would also provide this region with a much needed economic boost.
