Murty-like so many of the very wealthy- has acted purely out of self interest and greed and has non domicile status so that her assets outside of the UK cannot be taxed here. This has nothing to do with protecting or retaining her Indian heritage as she could easily have dual citizenship and ethnicities/culture aren't dependent on wealth.

As for her influence on Sunak, well I guess we are all influenced by our partners (which may not always be an entirely bad thing sometimes&#128512 but then we are influenced by many things. All that is important for those in public positions is that they act accordingly and fulfil their duties honestly and do what they say they will do with transparency and no corruption. (Yeah, right!)

As Murty resides here for so much of the time she should not have non domicile status but a lot of this anger against her is around the fact that a lot of people have finally woken up to the fact that one of the biggest issues in the UK is the huge divide in wealth and how disproportionately distributed this is. If an Indian -or other-businessman/woman was in this position who was not super wealthy then there might be some degree of sympathy about them not wishing any business they had worked hard to create in India also being taxed in the UK but when you are talking about the very wealthy who seemingly have so much money they don't know what to do with it at a time of such general austerity and hardship, this really grates. And -of course-it is the fact that she is married to the Chancellor who can have such influence on us all financially. No wonder it doesn't sit well!
