FT.com / UK - Ministers face call to act on tax havens.
FT comment on the Deloittes report on tax avoidance:
The report on corporate tax avoidance - prepared by Deloitte, the accounting firm - calculated its £2bn maximum figure by analysing the financial results for last year for 50 of Britain's biggest businesses.
But Richard Murphy, author of a report last year which put avoidance at more than £10bn, said it was "ludicrous" for Deloitte to base its sample on an "aberrant year" of "enormous shocks to the financial system".
That about sums it up.

Some of your analysis is ludicrous too, so why not admit that such studies have a weak basis – including your own?
