I can't see the argument for some working for a foreign company and living in a foreign country to pay UK tax. Do you expect them to pay on top of the tax they pay in their country of residence?

How much funding are Froome, Dowsett, Cummings etc getting from UK sports authorities anyway, given most of their training is run by their trade team? Not much I'll wager.

Are team sky not a UK registered company? That is how it appears on the wiki page but that could just be their UCI registration location so happy to be corrected.

I think I read on Inrng Sky have all/most of their staff paid as freelance contractors so they can opt to be paid in whichever country they choose.

Thankfully the UK makes a tidy packets from overpaid forrins who come to play football. So - swings and roundabouts.
