tzijlstra Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I like the way you say you think I'm above board and they proceed to smear me in the next paragraph. Take care - I wont come after you but others may if you repeat libels.. ---------- Post added 04-04-2016 at 13:31 ---------- Indeed, and I know a few cases where such arrangements are in place, and perfectly legally so. Interesting how this 'libel-theme' is recurring. Let me make abundantly clear I did not intend to 'smear you', I used your situation as an example of how overseas accounts in the Caymans could be used in corrupt transactions. If that is not clear from the way I phrased it, than my apologies. ---------- Post added 04-04-2016 at 14:15 ---------- I don't need to. Sally Bercow and Alan Davies merely re-tweeted something that had been widely circulated in the public domain. It is libleous to repeat someone else's libel. Simple. Stop being so pedantic, if you don't have anything to say about the actual original topic than just get out of the discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems you are getting very good at smearing folk without realising it. There's a pattern emerging. It used to be known as Chinese Whispers.

Let me make it clear - there is no way my "accounts" - because they are in fact shell companies I control not bank accounts could be used for nefarious purposes - and I'll thank you to acknowledge that.

Anna B Posted April 4, 2016 Share Posted April 4, 2016 I believe this issue ('Tax havens of the rich and powerful exposed',) is being investigated tonight on 'Panorama,' BBC1 at 7.30pm (04.04.2016) Then people can judge for themselves whether they consider it Tax avoidance or Tax evasion, and whether it's morally acceptable. Should make for interesting viewing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Obelix Posted April 4, 2016 Author Share Posted April 4, 2016 They've just traced some of the companies in the leak to the Brinks-Mat gold it seems. This could be quite interesting to see where that went, and how many people have unknowingly been involved in this.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should make for interesting viewing... Well, since Panorama's standards have stooped to where they are, somewhere between Channel 5's benefits-ra-ra-ra'hing "red top level" and Channel 4's asking-the-wrong-questions-and-following-anything-but-the-money "dirty and cheap level"...you'll have to excuse my sticking to my own standards of objectivity and what makes a program "interesting". Personally, I'd sooner the data was centrally archived and made available for download in raw form, Wikileaks-like. All considerations of (im)propriety, fairness to those concerned, DPA-like breaches, etc. firmly put aside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
