While some of the ultra-rich are fleeing their hometowns to protect their wealth in sunny locales with lower tax burdens, a growing group of U.K. millionaires are staying put and demanding to pay more. Now, 120 wealthy Britons have signed an open letter to England’s new prime minister Andy Burnham, asking for their taxes to be raised.
The “Proud to Pay” campaign, organized by Patriotic Millionaires UK, has drawn support from some of the country’s biggest stars—including the likes of former footballer Gary Lineker, and legendary music producer Brian Eno.
