Close loopholes that allow corporations to legally avoid paying tax in the UK
In light of the news that companies like Apple have avoided paying their fair share of tax (surprise surprise) by investing via companies based in Jersey and the Isle of Man, where taxation is set at or near 0%, I believe the UK should act to prevent this as a matter of principle.
Given that it only takes a login to your email to sign this petition, even if you believe it will bring about no change whatsoever, if you agree with the underlying belief then I feel you should sign anyway. As a minimum, it states the intentions of the people, and could act to bring about change in the future.
You can't sign this petition because it was rejected. But you can still comment on it here at Repetition.me!
The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:
We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.
You could start a new petition explaining clearly what changes you'd like to be made to the laws on tax.
