Dragon's billionaire says we must give more cash!

Its going to take more than a ham s......... Wait a minute can Muslims eat ham?

Seriously though only way to sort out the Islamic world is to put an end to the Jews in Israel treating them like the Nazi`s treated the Jews. You know shit like, " We suspect a terrorist leader of living in that apartment block so we`ll fire a rocket into it, then level the apartments and build a Jewish settlement on it. Arrest? Trial, rights and due process? Whats that?" And all of that funded by the inbred fuckwits from America

James,

Personally I find it really touching that the well-known tax avoider, Caan, based in Monte Carlo, I believe, can take time out from his tax avoidance activities to advise all of us on who and how much money we should give.

There is no end to these people's generosity is there?

Cheers

All those who sia dhtey wont donate money to pakistan for whatever reason thats fine. You give because you want to. Not because you are expected to. I just dont agree with all the trying to justify ones choice.

Did anyone donate money to the Hurrican Katrina fund then?

Would it be fair to say that youodnt donate to charities simply because you just dont want to?

Sure Bono et al are all dicks but then who isnt. Double standards is all part of human nature but yet still listen to those celebs thats why they are appointed because they are recognised than your average charity worker who would go unnoticed if they were standing on a busy high street with a placard saying "please give"

Stick a celeb up on the massive monitors at Piccadily Circus wearing shades and twanging a mean guitar and suddenly you got the attention of millions.

Sad but thats just the way it is.

Fuck em. Give because you want to not because some tv celeb told you to

I would like to call em a bunch of cunts, but, cunts are usefull, and Geldoff and Caan etc are fucking useless gobshytes.

"Never bought from Amazon via Jersey?"

No

"Never bought duty free then? "

An inane analogy. Tax avoidance (legal until proved otherwise) is what government(s) have not got around to making tax evasion (illegal).

In the case of duty free, it is a common feature of most tax systems that taxes are not raised on goods to be exported. To do so would place the goods at a disadvantage to those from other countries. Either the tax system allows the goods to be exported without taxes (stored prior to export in a bonded warehouse), or taxes can be claimed back when they are exported.

To compare duty free with complex tax dodges set-up in many cases by banks bailed out by taxpayers so that the wealthy can dodge paying millions is.......rather stupid.

"You buy duty free toavoid tax. You could easily buy the same stuff including duty, you choose not to. Just saying my analogy is inane does not prove it is. Your technique of belittling others is wearing very thin."

Let me explain a little more.

Tax avoidance for the likes of Caan typically means employing at huge expense specialist providers of banking services who concentrate their working lives on finding loopholes in tax law. These loopholes often involve extremely complex, company structures with myriads of holding companies and changes of ownership along the way. As these loopholes get closed down by the government(s) they come up with other ingenious ways of avoiding tax. And so it goes on as part of an ongoing battle.

The term duty free is in some ways a misnomer, because shoppers may still have to pay duties in their home country on items purchased from a duty-free shop. In addition, you may have noticed duty free items in UK airports that could well be more expensive than the same items in your local High Street. They often depend on the presence or absence of nearby competition. If you are in the habit of taking advantage of the beer on sale on the likes of Ryanair, you may possibly have noticed that their prices are not exactly cheap compared to your local boozer.

To compare the likes of what multi-millionaires like Caan and Rupert Murdoch do in order to avoid huge amounts of tax with someone buying a bottle of vodka in Hong Kong airport is silly. I am sorry if you feel this insults your view of your own intelligence.
