Does London need the Global Rich hanging around if they’re not willing to pay taxes? Is it necessary to have the tax bring in 30 Billion in order for it to be considered a success? If nothing else, this tax demonstrates to those who DO pay tax, that the Government is willing to treat earners equally and fairly, regardless of how much tax it brings in.

If they're here they tend to spend money, and employ people. That all ends up as tax slightly more indirectly.

I employ people and I am not a billionaire. I also pay my taxes. Crazy I know.

Would you still pay if you knew for certain you'd get away with it? If yes, why, or why not?

Yes, I took from my community to get to where I am. I used libraries, roads, and social services. Ethically, it's only fair that you pay it back and give other people the same chance I had. If you have clean water coming out the tap then you benefit from people paying taxes.
