Foster's piles.15.07.2010.

'Lord' Foster of Thames Bank, regularly heard berating Prince Charles for not wanting him to despoliate London with various, often high-rise monstrosities (with a view to earning millions more on top of his already monumental wealth) says he has given up his peerage because of his tax status.
He refuses to tell anybody how much tax he avoids paying by living in Switzerland, which is altogether greener and more pleasant.
His 'works' include a 'new' Wembley Stadium, which mainly involved demolishing the beautiful landmark original one, and The Gherkin, home to the money-spinning industry.

He is non-resident for tax purposes because he 'spends' more than a third of a year abroad.

makes him monumentally
rich with piles of cash.

Foster has a nicer view
far from taxation.
