Let us not understate the importance of our low CT rate

And since we started it our corporation tax take has gone up and our economy has taken off. Are you saying that we should now take a moralistic stance and try to stop the next poor guy into the club from playing by our rules or should we increase it and try to get back to the good old days of the 1980's?
By the way countries and cities have used tax rates to attract investment and capital for hundreds(maybe thousands) of years; we didn’t invent it.
Isn't that what Clubman would call an ad-hominem attack, whereby you put words into my mouth and then attack me for your words. Maybe you should just concentrate on what I actually did say, rather than what you assume my opinions to be?

No, that would be a strawman argument. An ad homenen would be saying you were an idiot (and by inference your opinions were idiotic too.)

No, I simply asked questions in an attempt to show that the phrase "race to the bottom" is a cover for protectionism that (in an EU context) keeps the poor, poor, and the rich, rich.
I have a high opinion of you (or at least the persona which you present here) and would not seek to attack you personally.

A strawman argument is when one ignores the points or views expressed by another party and counters/refutes based on a position that the other party has not made.
I have simply asked Complainer what actions he would like to see to counter what he sees as a race to the bottom.
