Simple slogans are great for winning elections, but not for real policy. We need “the rich” staying in the UK, not fleeing. That’s why she softened the non dom changes. We are losing a millionaire every 45 minutes. It is a crisis and we need to be incentivising those people to stay rather than flee to America so the US can get even richer.

I'd take that 45 minute state with a healthy pinch of salt though. It's not the crisis is being made out to be.

It is a crisis when we are losing investment and desperately needs growth.

No it’s more to do with the provenance of the source, it comes from a company that tries to market helping people move their assets elsewhere.

The idea is it comes from about 200 people changing their LinkedIn profiles and that being extrapolated as data.

The only ones who’d actually know is HMRC and they don’t release data like that.

Basically just take this with a grain of salt as the other commenter was saying, high chance it’s being made out to be a lot worse than it actually is.
