BBC: "Tax havens: Is the tide turning?"

Link to BBC web site

"Protesters stage sit-ins in shops and banks around the UK, in the hope of getting tax avoidance by massive corporations on to the political agenda."

"In recent months, a loose coalition on 'tax fairness' has emerged, uniting angry taxpayers, business ethics pressure groups and development NGOs. The focus is now on tax avoidance - legal arrangements to pay less tax, sometimes using complicated financial structures - rather than just illegal tax evasion."
