Re: Tax havens exposed in huge law firm leak

Just listening to George Galloway on the Sunday Politics asking people to believe that whilst his non-parliamentary earnings were handled via a company and subject to corporation tax (substantially lower than the relevant personal rate) he really believes people like him ought to pay more in tax than they do. Surprisingly, he didn't confirm whether his awful quilt about this unfairness extends to donating the difference in the tax he actually paid and that which he would have been required to cough up (had he chosen to run his affairs differently) in order to benefit of all those poor and needy he'd just cited. When pressed about what he actually paid on his earnings outside of parliament (c.£250k in 2014 apparently) his reply was "I paid a very, very, great deal/amount of money in tax exactly as I was required to do..." Sounds rather like Cameron then.

Just another rose tinted hypocrite amongst a very extensive list of those champagne socialists.
