"Artist Tracey Emin has said she is thinking of leaving the UK in protest about being overtaxed. In a Sunday Times interview she said she was "very seriously considering leaving Britain," adding: "I'm simply not willing to pay tax at 50%.""
"Emin said the Labour government had no understanding for the arts."

Nope, she was offered a bunch of cash to make but she said no
Chapman brothers have made a copy, though they can't show it anywhere else the lawyers get involved
And in my opinion rightly so, the tent is so epic, it's unique and a big loss

40% tax, who pays 40% tax? I thought the more you earn the less you pay, as you can now afford a good accountant.

Anything over ยฃ37,400 is taxed at the current high rate (40%). ยฃ37.4K is nothing to a city job or even any skilled job these days.

And that's why Denmark is years ahead of most countries.
