1. Oh no…

2. Didn’t this guy already leave the country under the Tories?

3. shame

4. Brexit put my families and many others businesses at risk.

   So eff you and your selfish little Britain whining

5. No. It’s put his Son’s chances of inheriting millions without paying taxes at risk.

6. Wow, she did something sort of nearly good.

7. Sending thoughts and prayers ❤️‍🩹

8. He’s absolutely right. I mean he built an empire in a vacuum, cleaned up, and somehow did it all entirely alone. No talented workforce, no stable business climate, no in-work benefits… not one speck. Incredible stuff. Now these suckers want to hoover up and leave him with crumbs. Pfft. 

9. After inventing that awful combination tap and hand dryer you see in some offices, he should be stripped of every penny he made.

10. Dyson Brexiteer – an overpriced noisy whiner

11. Poor rich man 🥺

12. Massive shame. This guy lobbied for brexit, then left the country straight afterwards. I bet he, his business, and his family pay bugger all in UK Tax.

    As I said, shame it might break his business.

13. what a disingenuous snake

14. Then he should make do with his promises and leave. He has been complaining since he ‘won’ brexit.

15. Will someone think of the billionaires!

16. It’s the “tax efficient” like him and clarkson who created this mess

17. Advocated for Brexit and jumped ship, blames someone who became chancellor AFTER Brexit

18. Not nearly as much damage as he did to his business.

    Look in the mirror.

19. Article says they maintain Research and Development in the UK.

    Likely, they make no profit in the UK, pay no corporation tax and take advantage of UK R&D incentives, meaning we actually pay them tax credits back.

20. Rich people complaining means a policy has worked in favour of normal people.

    We need a lot more policies that make rich people cry.

21. Rachel Reeves’ IHT changes have not put his family business at risk.

    The chicanery and dubious practice James Dyson is going through to avoid paying his fair share of tax to U.K. is what is putting his family business at risk.

22. Dyson’s are crap anyway. Henry Hoover’s are the best.

23. He’s a great example of why anyone looking to (financially) leave the country should be taxed heavily. We really need to get some control over these billionaires it’s embarrassing

24. Shit vacuums, failed EV project, doesn’t live in the UK, yet this fucker never shuts up moaning?

25. James Dyson can fuck off. When the billionaires complain, it means we’re finally doing something right.

26. Sir James “my family is more important than yours” Dyson

27. It’s always interesting when someone who’s already moved their operations abroad suddenly becomes an expert on domestic tax policy. The framing of “family business risk” feels like a deliberate distraction from the actual issue. At the end of the day, this is about ensuring generational wealth contributes its fair share.

28. Wankers like this do more damage to the average UK worker, by tax dodging and adding to false narratives.

29. I’d quite like to see him launched into the sea via trebuchet.

30. Oh he can fuck off

31. So billionaire with more money than he can spend complaining that his family will have to pay tax on the money they will inherit that will still leave them with more money than they can spend

32. Oh go fuck yourself.

    Traitor who advocated for Brexit and then took his business abroad.

33. He is having an absolute laugh right?

    He is worth 15 billion, inheritance tax will not put his family business at risk, they will just have to pay up some of the obscene amount of money they have and as a result, still have an obscene amount of money left.

    Here is me with £150 savings in the bank and he is complaining about this, absolute arsehole and completely removed from reality.
