A Franck Muller watch sounds like most of the money went to Germany or Austria Possibly all of it if it was custom made. They're Swiss. Still doesn't mean it wasn't sold in the UK and that'd mean at least 20% of it went to HMRC.
Optimistic as ever |

Poor Simon. He attracts attention with his flash appearance and then wonders why these things happen to him in life. I'm certainly not condoning it, but it's why it happens. I think that driving a Maserati helps as most scrotes will think that whoever is driving it has got money

The rest of the £100k to Switzerland, or all of it if it was bought abroad or maybe custom made abroad.

What does it matter what economy it went to?, it's jobs and employment and tax, which can only be a good thing.

I drive a German car, watch a Korean television which is wired up to my sound system which includes a Japanese amplifier and American speakers. Most of my kitchen appliances are German although that doesn't necessarily mean that they are actually made there but I have an American style fridge freezer manufactured by the same South Korean company that makes my television and I'm typing this post on my Korean mobile phone (I'm not really) but you take my point as hardly anything of our "everyday stuff" is British. EDIT - I forgot to mention clothes as I doubt whether much if anything in my wardrobe is manufactured in Britain Edited by Midlands Eagle (23 Mar 2018 5.54am)
