There is another dimension to the story I noted earlier today about Switzerland's infringement of a Swiss banker's human rights through the promotion of banking secrecy.
Elmer is right that tax law can infringe on people's human rights. But it's not just Switzerland who does this. The UK does too.
The UK's domicile rule infringes my human rights. I am resident in the UK but have no opportunity to pay tax on a remittance basis, whether I offer an inducement of £30,000 or not. I'm prejudiced on the basis of my national origin, and that's illegal under the UK's race relation laws.
If anyone wishes to fund taking this to the European Court of Human Rights, just let me know.
Thanks for reading this post.
