General Discussion for politics in the UK.
Please don't post to both !uk_politics@feddit.uk and !unitedkingdom@feddit.uk .
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric politics, and should be either a link to a reputable news source for news, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread. (These things should be publicly discussed)
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.
!ukpolitics@lemm.ee appears to have vanished! We can still see cached content from this link, but goodbye I guess! :'(

If I remember correctly too, the "travel days" don't count. Might have changed recently, as it was a law written for steamships, not private jets.
So someone could arrive on the first Monday flight, be there for Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, fly back Thursday evening.
Technically only two days in the uk, so they could be around for the bulk of 45 weeks, and still be non-dom.
There is a lot of obfuscation going on with tax systems. This is by design so that only those with money can take advantage of it. Crickhowell showing just this.
