How about paying less tax the more you earn? "Not so daft"

A few year back one of the new countries formed when yugoslavia got split up came up with the idea on personal tax to pay 20% for everyone up to 15k. Then 18% from 15-25K & 16% on 25-35K. It was to encourage the more wealthy to stay in the country & pay taxes instead of moving money outside. Wonder how this would work in the UK.

We (UK) managed to rid ourselves of about 10k tax dodgers, thankfully.

Good riddance. Fook em.

Potholes wouldn’t be filled and hospitals would close. The super rich don’t want to pay any tax. Low tax as a political aim is misplaced. You need to identify what a good level of public services will cost and tax accordingly
 
Not absolutely sure, but i think it was Montenegro .
They clearly ditched it since. (To be clear, I'm sceptical it ever existed)
Personal income tax rates
Progressive taxation has been implemented on both salaries and entrepreneurial income.

Salaries are taxed based on the following tax rates:

Salaries up to EUR 700 (gross) are tax-exempt;
Salaries between EUR 701 and EUR 1,000 (gross) are subject to 9% tax;
Salaries exceeding EUR 1,000.01 (gross) are subject to 15% tax.
Why do you think they've moved to the more conventional taxation model?
