THE TELEGRAPH: International lawyers are descending on London to persuade British non-domiciles to re-locate as pressure grows on the Chancellor to delay controversial plans to levy £30,000 a year on foreigners resident in the UK.

It is totally depressing how many Irish, Swiss and Dutch lawyers are swarming all over our clients now in London, and the clients are listening to what was previously dismissed as jealous propaganda."
