Five companies shut down for filing false and forged accounts Companies falsely claimed to have hundreds of millions of pounds in turnover and profits

Whoopy doo 🥳
"Five" companies have been booted off the UK business register for filing false accounts. Only tens of thousands more to go

Until it stops being ridiculously easy to establish a company in the UK, the fraudsters will keep on winning and laughing www.gov.uk/government/n...

Study finds: "a significant average decline of approximately one-third in the number of tax haven subsidiaries among European banks following the introduction of mandatory public CbCR, compared to a control group of insurance firms exempt from the disclosure requirement."

Very strong result. Rarely see "80% support for anything!

Thousands of company directors leave UK after Labour’s tax changes FT analysis finds jump in departures with UAE the top destination

Pure sensationalism from the FT

- biggest increase over last 2yrs is moves to Germany
- the increased no. of UK nationals 'flocking' to UAE is 80 over 2yrs, and largely SME directors www.ft.com/content/a3fc...

Windfarmed We’re doing more than producing fossil free electricity at some of our offshore wind farms. We’re growing seaweed there, too.  We call it Wind Farming.

Did dodgy, likely fabricated data, change UK tax policy?

Hard-right UK press hate the massive influx of rich americans to the UK. It destroys thier false narrative of a flood of non-doms leaving for Dubai

For the record, she is trading up in the UK

And they simply hand over to European and Australian legislators the power to decide what financial information US investors can see in connection with US MNCs. Because the EU and Australian pCBCR is not going away

When this Trump / MAGA thing is all over, people are going to look back at who had backbone and who didn't.

Powell is showing so much spine. Love him.

But oh so many jellyfish out there right now.

How, you might ask, could House Republicans oppose companies disclosing their tax rates? In a letter to FASB, they argued that forcing companies to disclose their tax rates could allow tax authorities to “heighten their scrutiny” of companies that cheat on their taxes. hern.house.gov/uploadedfile...

It's grest that the UK government is expanding the number of bodies in HMRC. But the wage rates are ridiculous. Just above the real living wage rates. No wonder turnover is so high. Can earn more on the counter at Aldi. These are serious, stressful jobs and need talented, motivated people.

‘I love England so much’: From TV to pop, film to fashion, the UK is enjoying a cultural resurgence Three decades on from Blur and Oasis, a new and more diverse wave of stars is celebrating British identity

Reckon that for every non-dom the UK loses to Dubai and Switzerland we will pocket at least a dozen well-healed, freedom loving americans fleeing the nightmare that is becoming the USA. Nice little outcome is that. www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

One of my favourite stats about the global economy is that somewhere around half of world cross-border trade happens *within* rather than *between* firms.

(to be specific, 44% of the US-international goods trade is related-party trade, per just-released 2024 data: www.census.gov/foreign-trad...)

Excellent to see. Catholic Church in Italy amplifying message of Catholic Church (England and Wales) that taxation needs to be "driven by human dignity and serving the common good."

Google and Brookfield strike $3bn hydro power deal Tech groups seeking renewable energy to meet huge demand from artificial intelligence

As US Big Tech starts monopolising green energy output around the global, perhaps a case for a corporate energy level to ensure that capacity (and grid) can expand to keep pace - and ensure that something left for other businesses? www.ft.com/content/d8be...

Important message from @appgonacrt.bsky.social on tackling dirty money and tax abuse.

With £billions lost to tax havens, we need full transparency, not smokescreens.

We need fully accessible public registers in the British Overseas Territories.
