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.

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。

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.
