Facebook pay no Corporation Tax AGAIN
Discussion
Anyway.. before we get too overpowered by the Tory Boy rabble ranting about free markets and blah blah blah.. you lot can chime in all you want with "yeah but.." and complicate the situation in an attempt to deny the system is flawed - I don't particularly care. It all boils back down again to the fact that companies like Facebook are screwing this country. You can all scream socialism and point fingers at Labour, or Owen Jones, or whoever your little pet leftie hate is.. it only makes people like me more convinced that you're brainwashed.

Before then we've already been overpowered by a demonstration of juvenile insults, almost always a sign of having nothing worthwhile or credible to say.Tory Boy rabble
ranting If that's the best you got, you aint got a lot to offer.
So Ireland competes with UK and wins. It's all the fault of big business? Typical leftie crap. This is what you get when you give medals to anyone that participates rather than just the winner. The losers blame the winners because they want a medal too and can't compete.
Reduce tax rates and more businesses will book their profits in UK.

Well what's the point in arguing with you? You're so convinced you're right, and I'm so convinced you're delusional, that we won't get anywhere. My time is better spent dismissing your torybabble with my "juvenile" behaviour. Tory Boy rabble

Apparently the reason being their UK wage bill was £49.8m for 208 employees. Making an average salary of a pretty tasty £239,500!
Of course.. complex international business structure and funnelling sales through Ireland having almost nothing to do with it..
Do you phone up HMRC and ask them if you can pay them more tax than you owe?Apparently the reason being their UK wage bill was £49.8m for 208 employees. Making an average salary of a pretty tasty £239,500!

If you don't, then you should reserve your indignation for the tax system which allows companies such as Facebook not to pay tax here, not for the companies for doing their job - namely to maximise shareholder returns to the fullest extent legally permitted.

Err, shouldn't the thread title be UK government allow facebook and other large corporations maximise their profits by not closing loophole that allows them to not pay tax.
Its the government that's the problem not the corporations.
Corporations = Make as much profit as possible
This Government = Look after mates who run corporations so they can make as much profit as possible
Which one is failing in their remit?

When you sell crayons in the playground do you:
Buy crayons for 50p and sell each for 50p, or do you sell each for 75p?
And if you had 3 playgrounds ruled by the Mafia with 30%, 20%, 10% extortion rates on the 25p profit, which playground would you choose?When you sell crayons in the playground do you:
