I'm really torn by articles like this. On the one hand Google benifits massively from our education, university, health and infrastructure spending. All of which is paid for through taxation and all of which isn't perfect and more money would help. On the other hand, Google employs a lot of people and pays them well, it sponsers a lot of community efforts and just having their knowledge pool in the UK should spin off a number of projects employing more etc. They bring a lot to the table. My gut feeling is that the UK is at a net loss but things like this are very hard to quantify and I would not like google to leave the UK even though I'd personally never work there.
