I have nothing against them aside from their presence in my nation, their shabby and insulting grasp of my beautiful mother-tongue and the fact that they have been a well-proven nett negative demographic.
Therefore, without retorting to base and childish name-calling- I simply refuse to finance them by directing my money to British Islander only business.
If it is unavailable- I'll happily do without- I dislike Indian and Chinese food- it's very unhealthy and often prepared from very substandard raw ingredients- not to mention unhygienic kitchens (in Australia- a string of Indian and Chinese restos were found t have rat droppings in food just a example).
Is it also wrong I minimise my tax in extreme to not fund their NHS health rorts?
I am a native British who is not a legal resident for tax purposes- more than pleased to teach whomever wishes to learn to hide their hard-earned.

Hallooo Mr Skeptic!
Long time no joust.
No- I live here- but am not a resident for tax purposes- two very different concepts.
No- don't require roads (pay enough throug indirect petrol taxation, NHS (am life-long private), police (have own security- far more reliable) education (public schooled sorry- scholarships)
Try your bleeding heart pinkism lectures on someone who didn't pull himself up by his own bootstraps, sunshine.
I've lived and worked in the 3rd world- I doubt you've set foot out of the Cotswolds.

No its not wrong, Immigrant groups are basically self funding mono-cultures that only look after there own if you want to do the same why not ? When Pakistanis do this its called "having a community" its about time we had a community of our own.

My you are an arrogant piece of work and no mistake.
Before I have my own little rant, I will answer your primary question directly. Yes, it is wrong to boycott the services/business of horrid foreigners in the UK. If you can't see the insult (to humanity) in that, then the dark side is strong in you paduan.
Nothing against them? and then you go straight into ignorant, childish generalisations which illuminate nothing more than your bigotry ("their shabby and insulting grasp of my beautiful mother-tongue"). So when it comes to Human Rights, I take it you are all in favour except when it comes to 'them'? Denying them a place in your, that is 'our' society is doing just that. What a joker...
Whether you choose to spend your hard earned dosh on 'them' is of course your choice. I choose not to purchase products originating from countries where I abhor the regime and the abuse of human rights. However, while I do not take issue with your action in this regard, I certainly have issues with your motive(s).
Then you extol the virtues of trying to get around paying tax in any way you can, and express that as a virtue; even offering to help others do the same. Yes, you did say 'minimise' your tax, but that does not fool anyone. I get the feeling you would like to pay no tax at all if you thought you could get away with it, and you would still want the NHS, Roads, Education, Police, ....
The kicker is that you don't even live in the UK and you want 'them' out. Your attitude is reminiscent of the elitist British Empire with good old Victorian values (the workhouse, deportation, hypocritical morality, double standards...), now condemned to history, and thank goodness for that.
All I think you have done is air your own inadequacies on-line to the world, though sadly I am sure there are those that agree with you. However to me the attitudes you express are part of what gives the Human Species a bad name, and a troubled future.

You wish to boycott places yet you say your not in Britain for tax reason's I don't mind the tax status but how the hell would you be boycotting a place if you are not in the country. If you go ordering something over the internet you have no way of knowing if the company is owned by a British person are a person in South Africa are anywhere else.

No. You are more than welcome to do so. You will find however that it will be very hard to do so in this era of globalisation. UKIP http://www.ukip.org/ and the BNP http://www.bnp.org.uk/ might be able to help you. Bear in mind, that in order to do so, you will have to ensure that there are no shareholders of any business you do deal with that are 'foreign' and this might be a problem with utilities such as water and electricity.
However, your taxes which includes VAT, actually go to Her Majesty's Government. The Queen, the head of government is at least 30% German, and her husband is from Greece. I am not sure how you are going to avoid tax and stay out of jail.

Of course you have a perfect right not to patronise any business you prefer not to patronise.
BTW, are you English, Scottish, or Welsh? If it's not the last, just remember your history, in particular what happened when the Romans left the island.

So you're a tax avoider who loves this country so much than you'll do anything for it.
Except live here and pay your fair share.
Pardon us, if we don't take your advice on how to run the country.
