Ban tax heaven firms from coronavirus relief
Withhold Coronavirus-related government financial support for any offshore registered businesses who has, due to their tax status, paid less tax into the treasury than they would if registered in the UK.
If a private enterprise chooses not to pay their fair share of UK tax at source, it would be an insult to the British taxpayer, particularly the underpaid NHS tax paying workforce, to see these entities further benefit from government handouts that will ultimately be funded by the British tax payer.
