It's Philip A B Ham, and he's squirelling away the cash slush fund of Hammy Media in the discreet banks of Culebra | |

Do you not find it odd that the information was illegally, and has not brought any illegalities committed to light? The programme is sensationalist , and full of half truths, and unworthy of the BBC imo. | | | |

Mainly because it sheds no light on any illegal acts. It is just a diatribe against wealthy people. It omits one very important fact. There i now something called the Common Reporting Standard which obliges all the jurisdictions mentioned to automatically send information on bank accounts to the relevant tax authorities. Ihave answered your question, will you answer mine? | | | |

Would that be the same Guardian who have their own offshore investments? The same Guardian who avoided paying £60 million of taxes in 2008 by winding up the not-for-profit charity, The Scott Trust and forming The Scott Trust Limited when it sold its 50%t holding in Auto Trader? The same Guardian who have £223.8 million invested in an overseas/offshore hedge fund managed by Cambridge Associates which trades currency derivatives? Just so we are clear. | |

"Supposed to" - No it is a legal obligation , with severe penalties for non compliance. | | | |

There are likely to a significant number of breaches of various securities exchange legislation passed by a number of countries. In addition, the Furniss v Dawson principle and the Ramsay principle are both well-established in UK tax law, enabling HMRC to ignore the existence of non-commercial transactions, ie to apply 'substance over form'. Whether somebody passing papers belonging to a commercial entity to a third party is illegal is a moot point. I'm by no means sure receiving them is. I'm not sure of Lord sleazecroft's legal position, having apparently reneged on undertakings given about his domicile. I'm also not sure what the problem is in being morally outraged by exposure of this sort of behaviour, | |

I am calling out the hypocrisy of the Guardian. What they have done is all perfectly legal tax avoidance though. But it's a case of don't do as I do. Do as I say. | |

No breaches were exposed were there? Not sure where you are going with Furniss v Dawson. How does that apply? I think we can safely say that this information was stolen. Ashcroft,odious individual that he is, gave that committment to Cameron. By not fulfilling it I don't think that is illegal. I am sure that many people were outraged, but if the programme had presented some balance, by mentioning the CRS , and also explaining how investment funds are widely used by all and sundry, and that anyone with a pension fund has participated in "off shore" activity, perhaps the outrage would be less. | | | |

I think the point here, is if you're going to call out this bulls*t, it's probably a good idea to be well, not participating in said bulls*t as far as possible. | |

Not much different to the salary sacrifice schemes that many large employers imposed that reduced both company and employee national insurance contributions. | | | |

Did you watch the programmes? Do you understand UK tax law? Why would anyone claim to own companies then not show up as a direct at Companies house? | | | |
