so called john dams, which comes after the chancellor s wife was a non dom. after the chancellor s wife was a non-dom after the chancellor s wife was a non-dom. ., ., , ., , ., non-dom. non-dom is our people who live in the uk non-dom. non-dom is our people who live in the uk but non-dom. non-dom is our people who live in the uk but not non-dom. non-dom is our people who live in the uk but not domiciled - live in the uk but not domiciled here for tax purposes which means they can earn money abroad and pay tax abroad rather than tax in the uk. it has been a bit of a running theme in politics for the last 15 years or so, but it came back to the for a few weeks ago when it emerged at the chancellor s wife was a non dom and so she didn t pay uk taxes on her quite large earnings in india. non dom status was the subject of a review by the labour party anyway because they are looking at all the tax breaks and tax allowances in the system. but now, i m sure by pure coincidence of timing
years or so, but it came back to the fore a few weeks ago when it emerged that the chancellor s wife was a non dom so she didn t pay uk taxes on her quite large earnings in india. now, non dom status was the subject of a review by the labour party anyway, because they are looking at all the tax breaks and tax allowances in the system, but now, i m sure by pure coincidence of timing, rachel reeves, the shadow chancellor, has said that labour would eliminate non dom status. which means the current crop of the labour party have gone back to the position that we had under ed miliband and jeremy corbyn, when the party said they would get rid of non dom status. but there is a little bit of a nuance to that. they would still look at having some kind of way for people who are in the uk temporarily, maybe for up to five years, to be able to still keep paying their taxes abroad on their foreign earnings.
