Remember, Gordon, tax evasion is illegal Print E-mail

The government is desperate to stop effective action against tax evasion. Tax evasion, remember, is illegal. It is a criminal offence. The UK is lobbying to remove paragraph 10 of the Doha Outcome Document. This provides a framework for sharing information, simplifying tax laws and nailing the criminals.

John Christensen, director of Tax Justice Network, said: 'The European Parliament last week made a strong statement demanding the commission support this document. Britain is out on a limb within Europe. It's the usual suspects of the US, UK, Australia and Canada. These are the countries that created the toxic financial crisis undermining the global economy. Seemingly lessons have not been learnt.'
