Miserable Sod
Target the tech companies paying zero percent corporation tax in the Canary Islands would be a good start wouldn’t it.
But when these companies and leaders lobby and fund so much politics, that makes things harder.
Although I’m not anti-fat cat in that way, CEO’s and directors work harder and have a lot more responsibility than any of us. And largely they are PAYE like the rest of us, so there aren’t siphoning money to an offshore account before paying tax.
The tech companies one is something that France have looked at.
The Directors and CEO's I had as client worked far less than their staff. I spent most of my time on a golf course with them. There are all sorts of tricks they use to hide money. I know. That was part of my job to teach them.
The idea of forcing them to pay more to staff fills me with conflicted views. I'm no socialist, and believe in free capitalism, but how much money is enough? Shouldn't a living wage be achievable for all in 2020?
I really wish they'd just do it voluntarily.
