SCHWYZ (Aftonbladet)

Annifrid Lyngstad, 40. Annifrid Lyngstad has moved from London to the tax haven of Switzerland, Kvällsposten says today In Switzerland, she avoids the rising income tax in England as well as wealth tax. Kvällsposten quotes a Swiss newspaper which states that Annifrid Lyngstad earns half a million a year by moving from England to the canton Schwyz. There, the income tax is 19.44 percent, the lowest in Switzerland. Previously, England, where Annifrid Lyngstad moved at the end of 1982, only had a tax of 50 percent of the income of foreign citizens.

But last autumn Margaret Thatcher's Conservative government changed the rules for taxing foreign nationals in England The new rules come into force during a five-year transition period

The new right-wing income tax is taking full effect 1989-90. When she moved to England at the end of 1982, she only had to pay tax on 50 percent of her income. In five years, she will have to pay 60 percent in income tax. With the new English tax rules, she would therefore lose an estimated half a million kroner a year. There have previously been reports that Annifrid Lyngstad moved to Schwyz, but she has denied this.

We have information from authorities here that Annifrid Lyngstad has been registered in Schwyz since August 13, 1984, says one of the editors of the local newspaper Bote der Urschweiz - She, like a number of other celebrities, has chosen to move to our canton because of the low taxes we have here, he says.

Last Friday, the newspaper also published photo evidence that Annifrid Lyngstad actually has connections to Switzerland. These are pictures taken from the newspaper's editorial office. Annifrid Lyngstad stands with a male acquaintance on the terrace of her four-room apartment. Switzerland and Sweden have a double taxation agreement in which it is clearly stated that "a person who has permanent residence in the second treaty country, i.e. Switzerland in Annifrid Lyngstad's case, must be taxed there. But the move to Switzerland does not mean that she escapes the problems that a number of Swedes abroad received in England. The government has made an amendment to the double taxation agreement with England, an amendment which means that wealthy Swedes who have settled in England can nevertheless be taxed in Sweden The new agreement came into force at the turn of the year.

Blonde Frida smiled and sang along when Springsteen played "Twist and shout"

By her side she had her friend Charlotte Klingspor-Zimmerman

---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Bruce celebrated with Frida last night.

GOTHENBURG - Immediately after the concert, Bruce Springsteen invited to a party. At the party, he somewhat embarrassedly accepted praise from Frida Lyngstad - An absolutely wonderful concert, said Frida. And then Springsteen was very, very pleased.

When the crowd was still applauding for more - it was after the "Twist and shout" - Bruce and his band were already on their way to the hotel They jumped straight into two minibuses that were right behind the stage - in front of the main entrance of the hotel hundreds of people were waiting A dozen or so cops were called in to keep order but Springsteen fooled them all - he slipped in quickly through a back road. He was dripping with sweat when he got off the bus he looked tired and happy. Over his stage clothes he wore a long black coat - This was one of my best concerts ever. The same intimate stuttering as when we play indoors in front of 10,000 spectators at home in the USA. The crowd - It was absolutely fantastic it kept giving us more and more energy, I could have played at least another hour. Bruce was also very satisfied with the job of the organizer and the police - I am grateful that the police provided a police escort to and from Ullevi. The police and guards also did a very nice job with the crowd. For an hour, Bruce relaxed in his suite before taking his wife Julianne and two bodyguards under his arms and going to his party. At half past one, Bruce arrived and then stayed for just over an hour before disappearing with Julianne. It was a very exclusive buffet laid out on the top floor of Park Avenue, every imaginable kind of fish, shellfish and Russian caviar. Bruce and the saxophonist Clarence Clemons talked for a few minutes each with Frida. "You can't get much bigger than ABBA," Clarence told Aftonbladet the other day. Bruce, dressed in blue jeans and a yellow T-shirt, also received a gold record for his latest LP "Born in the USA". Björn Borg and Jannike Björling who stayed at the suite next to Springsteen did not come to the party - We didn't know Borg was here says Clarence. But we hope he will come to Sunday's concert as well. The only disappointment so far for Bruce Springsteen after all He hasn't seen much of Gothenburg - I have never been in such a commotion. This is flattering, but I really wouldn't have minded walking around and looking at the town and the people.
