@iainmagee Tax rate is 15%, I believe. -
@bazzacollins I was exaggerating slightly :) It's 12.5% for trading -

@bazzacollins According to the tax law in Ireland, they don't actually pay tax as they are 'not controlled' in Ireland. Madness.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
