Explained in plain English

Can I avoid UK tax by moving?

No, not necessarily. The story highlights that HMRC is now listing billionaires who owe UK tax 'regardless of their official residency'. This means if you have financial ties or income streams originating in the UK, you could still be liable for UK tax, even if you live abroad.
