That is possible. I wasn't referring to those non doms. I was referring to non doms that specifically choose the UK because of their tax situation. I'm one of those people and I can tell you while I'm a non dom I still paid a very hefty tax bill and have contributed more than a small village of labour supporters to the overall economy. I'm not trying to be a dick but just pointing out that the non dom situation adds more to the UK bottomline than the headlines would have you believe.
