Stop companies with offshore tax havens receiving Covid-19 bailout packages.
We would like the government to ban any company using tax havens and not paying UK taxes and then requesting a Covid-19 bailout funded by British taxpayers.
This Covid-19 crisis will have a devastating economic impact to this country and we will need every penny to stabilise the economy and fund the health and social sector and benefit system for those affected by the crisis. Why is it fair to help out companies who do not contribute to the country take tax payers money.
