How do you work that out?

The UK gets Spin's taxes, his company's taxes from profits swelled by his efforts, plus his contribution to the general economic benefits of having a (usually) thriving financial service sector. Plus its citizens get a culinary education and an extra Man United fan.

Spin gets shit weather, shit transport, shit food and Chelsea fans... tempered only by his salary, OT and Scotch.
