If the exit is so good for the UK, why do they have to lower corporate taxes to prevent business from fleeing? Who will end up footing the bill for those lost corporate taxes?

The corporate tax breaks were already baked in regardless of Brexit: http://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/budget-2015-corporation-tax-just-got-cut-again-even-though-the-uk-already-has-the-lowest-rate-in-the-10375238.html It is just what Conservatives without real ideas do.

As opposed to the Labour party that just jacks taxes? That's a "real idea" to just jack spending and taxation to the moon? No, sorry, that's just a stupid and bad idea.
