[@markwelch3564]

@@overthecounterbeanie I honestly couldn't care about their personal lives What I care about is a mind boggling amount of unaccountable cash sloshing around the highest level of government. Is Sunak's skin in the game for the UK economy, or does he see the UK economy as a opportunity for his real interests?

[@overthecounterbeanie]

@@markwelch3564 "Unaccountable"? His wife, an Indian citizen, earns dividend on her shares in Infosys, an Indian company. UK law exempts non-citizens from paying tax on money earned abroad. It is 100% accounted for! Edit: by staying in the UK and spending her not inconsiderable wealth in the UK, Akshata Murthy continues to boost the local economy (spending Indian money in the UK) without reaping any of the benefits of citizenship.
