This week we have a league table of the most quoted individual tax advisers!

We ran a search through the national newspapers, running from Budget Wednesday to the Sunday after, and counted the number of mentions each of TS' regular tax titans managed to tot up.

Was it Richard Mannion of S&W? No. He got just the one mention. John Whiting? A measly four. Chas Roy-Chowdhury, a man who practically lives in the national press, just one mention. Chris Sanger of E&Y did honourably, with nine, alongside Stephen Herring of BDO.

Bill Dodwell of Deloitte pipped both with ten separate references.

But our winner (drum roll please) was the ever-quotable Mike Warburton of Grant Thornton.

A round of applause, please, for his eleven, yes, eleven mentions.

Before he gets a big head, can we add that Alistair Darling's name came up 620 times in the same period. Some way to go yet, Mike.
