  Lotus eaters also pay tax until the UK HMRC decides we are not worthy of collecting from. I await their decision as paying tax in two countrioes is a bit off, but those are the rules.
  
  I think there is an erroneous impression, probably created by the Labour Party, that just because some of us work overseas we are all tax dodgers, you know, like Lord Paul. Well, in the words of the song, "it ain't necessarily so".
  
  As for denying UK citiznes their democratic rights, if taken to it's literal conclusion, holidaymakers would forfeit all rights when abroad too. Daft to even suggest it, but it cuts both ways in my view. And then where does that leave the armed forces abroad? Surely we are not advocating one rule for the "stop at homes" and one rule for those whose work takes them abroad? That's very undemoncratic and uncivilised in my view.
