Corporations paying no tax?

Dear Julie Morgan do you agree with me that we should tell Gordon Brown who has
publicly committed himself to the international campaign to make poverty historyand yet the UK plays a major role in helping multinational companies dodge the taxes they owe to developing countries. Many of the world's tax havens are British, and the City of London has become a specialist centre for helping corporations dodge their tax obligations.

Multinational corporations are robbing developing countries of billions of pounds in tax owed every year, through tax havens and unethical practices such as transfer pricing. Africa alone loses an estimated £75 billion each year through tax dodging and capital flight - five times what it receives in aid.

We are calling on you to use your influence to ask Gordon to stop companies dodging the tax they owe and thereby depriving developing countries of vital revenue that they could use in the fight against poverty.

We call on the British government to:
* abolish all UK tax havens as a first step towards ending the scandal of corporate tax dodging
* ensure corporate transparency on tax by supporting a common tax disclosure reporting standard
* work with other countries to eradicate trade mispricing and other harmful tax abuses
* hold corporate executives along with their lawyers and accountants criminally liable for profit laundering and tax dodging
Between them, these measures will really start to make poverty history.

Do you support this and will you campaign to abolish tax havens etc as above to make poverty history?
