Urgh. This is part of the problem. They're Crown Dependencies. They're neither fully independent countries nor part of the UK. They're accountable to their own local electorates but host a lot of firms doing business that's really in other countries. They're ideal tax havens.

I am fond of the constitutional tweeness of Man, Sark, etc, but their situation really does need to be regularised.
