Great news for Billionaire Tax-dodging multinationals

[noseall]

Then why does John go on&on&on&on&on about this issue, they've not broken the law, so what?

Perhaps if people were made aware they could vote in a government that would care.

It's a global issue, don't have much say in America or Luxembourg.

 

[JohnD]

some, like that one, don't care enough.

 

[Ihavenojob]

some, like that one, don't care enough.

So oh wise one, what DO WE DO?

 

[SirGalahad]

I say again, tell the Hmrc, and post their reply.

Defender of the law but only in select cases?

Sad indictment on Britain today - law only applies to the law-abiding.

In other words, play by the rules, and you'll get bugger all.

Don't give a toss, and you're above the law.

 

[SirGalahad]

So oh wise one, what DO WE DO?

The EU anti tax avoidance legislation coming into force January 2019.

"Also in in 2015, Conservative, UKIP and DUP MEPs also voted against EU’s plans to crack down on corporate tax dodging, by making companies report where they make their profits and pay taxes. "

Big corps should pay tax like the SME or you against even that?

 

[JohnD]

So oh wise one, what DO WE DO?

Write to your MEP (while you have one) and your MP to say that you disapprove of tax-dodgers being given an easy ride, and support multi-national efforts to close the net on multi-national dodgers.

Vote for someone opposed to tax-dodging, and tell them why

Read the party manifestos and comment on the attitude (if any) to tax-dodging. One political party is particularly sympathetic to tax-dodging billionaires, so will not take action unless forced into it.

It's possible that you won't find it mentioned much in the mass media, so inactive citizen will remain in ignorance.

Can you guess why?

 

[JohnD]

So oh wise one, what DO WE DO?

Oh yes - and ignore people who try to mislead you with false stories

But they're not making much of a profit (if they were, they'd be paying more tax).

 

[SirGalahad]

It seems there is a great deal of overlap between the leave supporters and defenders of corporate tax dodging. I always thought Brexiteers stood for personal responsibility and taking control.

They defend these corporates because it's legal but then cry foul when EU citizens come to the UK legally.

Dumb is the correct adjective.

 

[Brigadier]

Defender of the law but only in select cases?

Once again, comprehension is not your strong point.
Predictably, your lack of comprehension means that my repeatedly telling you this will be wasted on you.

 

[JohnD]

Is Brig still attempting to avoid the fact that the source of the problem is laws which have been written to facilitate international tax-dodging?

 

[Ihavenojob]

Conservative, UKIP and DUP MEPs also voted against

Were they the only ones? No, 110 voted against, I counted 24 Tory,ukip & dup so plenty more from elsewhere. Why do you have to post such misleading statements ?

 

[JohnD]

ohhhhh hatejob, you should read the article more carefully.

Try again.

"across Europe it was backed by 444 MEPs to just 110 who voted against."

It was a vote in the European Parliament.

Didn't you know that the European Parliament contains MEPs that are not all British?

Great to see that the MEPs who bothered to vote are 4 to 1 in favour of cracking down on tax-dodgers.

You wouldn't get that result is a UK Parliament which contains a large number of Conservative and DUP Members.

Can you detect who's soft on tax-dodging?

 

[Brigadier]

Oh yes - and ignore people who try to mislead you with false stories

Take it to the HMRC.
Please post their reply.

 

[JohnD]

Is Brig still attempting to avoid the fact that the source of the problem is laws which have been written to facilitate international tax-dodging?

yes, he is.

I wonder how many people he thinks are stupid enough to be taken in by his ruse?
