Sick of Amazon, Starbucks et al dodging tax - then sign this

Additional Information

We, the british public, are sick of having to pay tax on everything, whilst corrupt large corporations use equally corrupt large accountants to avoid paying billions.

This has to stop.

What's even worse is these same accountancy companies that help them avoid tax, are also advising government on many financial matters including taxation!

Under the guise of legality, smaller companies are set-up to sell goods to the larger parent, often in unrelated tax-free territories, to avoid the tax that under the spirit and moral meaning of the law should be paid.

Why should these Companies benefit and yet give nothing back - what's the good of a job in a country with poor schools, hospitals, roads, law and order etc, which is what lack of tax results in.

These loop-holes and dodges need to be closed, permantly - or the companies do, they can't have it both ways - we the tax paying masses, don't.
