Founder of Pimlico Plumbers Charlie Mullins has launched a scathing attack on Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, as the business owner claimed that millionaires "don't need London anymore"
Mullins sold his business in 2021 for £145million, and is now working between Spain and Dubai to stop his money "going to the Treasury".
In an annual report on global wealth, the latest figures showed that London has now fallen out of the top five wealthiest cities, as millionaires and billionaires continue to ditch the UK under the current Labour Government.
The data revealed that the capital has now lost 11,300 millionaires over the past year.

Speaking to GB News about his decision to leave the UK, Mullins simply declared that his main reason for leaving was "because of Labour".
He explained: "I left nine months ago when Labour came into power, and I'm spending my time in Spain or Dubai. And I think it's 11,300 other millionaires that left plus billionaires, and that figure will continue to go up.
"So this nonsense that the Government come up with nine months ago that people are not leaving is absolutely rubbish, it's absolute lies. More and more people will leave."
Issuing a warning to Britain's remaining millionaires, Mullins told them to "get out while they can afford to", as it is "only going to get worse".

PAWhen pressed by host Emily Carver on why millionaires are deciding to leave the UK, Mullins claimed that as business people, they can "travel the world", and "don't need London no more".
Mullins told GB News: "A lot of London needs business people and people that create jobs, and people that train people and people to contribute to society.
"Obviously they need them, but they just don't understand that business people can go anywhere in the world and do their business.
"We don't have to be in the UK no more. I'm going to set up in Dubai, we're going to set up in Spain - we don't need London no more."
Claiming he has already paid more than £125million in tax to the UK, Mullins stated that the only other place where more millionaires are leaving is Moscow, as there "is a war going on".

Mullins fumed: "I've payed in over over £125m in tax, they're trying to make my OBE off me, which obviously that's blown out of the water now because they've got no case against me - it's just shocking.
"The only place that more millionaires are leaving is Moscow, and the reason they are leaving Moscow is obviously because there's a war on.
"The only war we have on is with Labour. They created a war between between the working class people and with people that genuinely want to stay for the country."
He added: "I've had enough of them, loads of people have had about enough of them, and millions of people will continue to leave.
"And the only time we will come back is if and when they come out of power and hopefully Reform UK get in."
