TaxWatch的反驳与大卫·鲁本(David Reuben)离境相关的说法,并对超级富豪大举外流的报道提出质疑。超级富豪的明显外流表明英国不再是亿万富翁的游乐场。

TaxWatch contradicts claims about David Reuben’s departure and questions stories of super-rich exodus Apparent exodus of super-rich suggests UK is no longer billionaires’ playground When the Sunday Times broke the news that David Reuben, one of the richest men in the UK, had apparently fled to the tax haven of Monaco, there was much pearl clutching.

当《星期日泰晤士报》爆出英国最富有人之一的大卫·鲁本显然已逃往避税天堂摩纳哥时,引发了一阵惊慌。鲁本已经从他位于伦敦荷兰公园的住宅搬到了该公国常住。

Reuben had moved from his Holland Park house in London to live full-time in the principality.

各方将此归咎于工党的税收体制,并有传言称这会对整个经济产生连锁反应,导致英国财富流失。

Labour’s tax regime was blamed and there were said to be fears there would be a cascading effect across the economy, with wealth draining from the UK.

据报道,他离开很可能是因为即将到来的预算案中可能征收的财富税。

It was reported that he had probably left because of potential taxes on wealth in the upcoming budget.
