My Romanian neighbor works at one, perhaps it's unique.

I've never bought into this idea that people suddenly up and leave to save a few % on tax, the tax levels are the same as europe so they could go to Singapore Hong Kong or somewhere but then cost of living and other factors are much higher. If people had better opportunites to work elsewhere they would do that anyway regardless and employers can easily supplement the difference if they want to keep someone

America or Switzerland? Isle of Man, Jersey, Guernsey, Gibraltar, Dubai, there’s loads of places, and those who go to Singapore or Hong Kong earn so much the sums favour the higher living costs without the taxes here of whatever it would go to.

With the exception of Dubai those places are hardly large enough to provide a massive jobs market for UK emingres. THey are tax havens, but in the sense that people move their money there to avoid mainstream nations' taxes on the proceeds of investment. They also do it for privacy reasons (add Monaco and Switzerland to your list).
