www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-35918844Wonder what ineffective action (if any) the Inland Revenue and the government will take on this? Just like they did when the list of the wealthy with secret Swiss bank accounts at HSBC was released - zero prosecutions in this country I believe, but scores in France by comparison.

www.theguardian.com/news/2016/apr/04/panama-papers-david-cameron-father-tax-bahamasSo we have a prime minister whose family is connected to a company that's dodged EVER paying ANY UK tax. And a millionaire chancellor who's been caught - amongst other fiddles - "flipping" his million-pound Cheshire mansion in order to claim as much money as possible in expenses from the UK taxpayer. Don't forget folks, we're all in this together!

probably a few sacrificial lambs then business as usual - even if you outlawed it, the rich would be able to & afford to, find another scheme to do just what they are doing - and there's plenty of grifters out there all too happy to help them?

Well hopefully some of these people will be brought to justice and start paying the money back that they owe in Tax. Hopefully they don't contact Google first to see how they negotiated their deal though.
