You're not wrong, but I would not compare UK and Irish corporation tax rates. In the UK, any company that is publicly traded, multinational or larger than a few million in revenue a year pays a different set of taxes at a much lower rate. What we call "corporation tax" is really more like "small company and self employed people using limited liability" tax. It's only called corporation tax for historic reasons. Just fyi. Most people don't realise this, including most Brits. It's something if an in joke for accountants and people who own LTDs.
