Yes, low taxes will attract companies selling services to...who?

If you base in the UK you're limited to the UK market, which is big, but not as big as the EU.

Basing in Ireland may result in higher taxes (France has lower corporate tax rates than Ireland AFTER taking advantage of all the available tax breaks and refunds but you need a team of expensive French lawyers and accountants to keep on top of those whereas Irish corporate tax rates are simple and transparent and haven't changed for decades) but means you can trade freely and recruit from the entire continent.
