John Barnett of Burges Salmon revealed the billionaire took his family and flew to one of his 17 homes worldwide.
Many other wealthy clients are considering similar moves to countries with favorable tax laws, such as Italy, Spain, and Malta, following the abolition of the UK tax scheme effective April 2025.
