‘Immigrants cost UK too much money’ says migrant who moved to tax-free Monaco

Sir Jim Ratcliffe has accused immigrants of costing the UK too much money, despite saving himself billions in tax by moving to Monaco.

Ratcliffe quit the UK for Monaco in 2020 saving him an estimated £4 billion in tax payments, though it’s apparently immigrants who are the real people taking money away from the country.

“These people need to get a job,” said Ratcliffe, who has made 250 employees redundant since purchasing a share of Manchester United. 

“They need to stop taking benefits and contribute their fair share to the country. Well, unless their tax bracket gets a bit too high. Then I’d suggest perhaps moving to Monaco. Honestly, you’ll save yourself an absolute fortune. It’s a great little hack.

“Look, all I’m saying is these freeloaders need to start pulling their weight. And don’t get me wrong, I’m all for helping out the little people. That’s why I raised season ticket prices at Man United and reduced the discount rates for seniors.

“It may sound like I’m pricing out fans, but they need to learn to contribute more. I call it tough love.

“Anyway, I better get back to Monaco. If I stay in the UK too long people might remember how little tax I pay here.”
