Liechstensetin: The UK has no reason to be smug

Just in case anyone is feeling smug about Germany’s problem with Liechtenstein, remember this: the UK operates a ring fence so that it is a tax haven, just as Liechtenstein does.

We call it the domicile rule.

And it is as unacceptable as the rule that makes the Liechtenstein foundation tax free in that country.

    is there anything to stop the uk spy services from providing the same service to HMRC as the german spy agency did for their own tax authority?

    if not, surely they should get on with the job?

    They do - but they don’t have the authority to prosecute.
