Brits lead immorality charge in Panama Papers debacle.

Panama Papers: David Cameron urged to act as UK named 'at heart of super-rich tax-avoidance network'

Britain was second only to Hong Kong in a list of international jurisdictions where the most banks, law firms and middlemen associated with the Panama Papers operate

You wouldn't believe it- but it's true. The Brit leader claims that his own tax affairs are............" Private ".

Downing Street says Cameron family investments are 'a private matter'

He's not alone, of course. His world press buddies - whose owners are, no doubt, also implicated- began yesterday by trying to dump all of their own immorality on Vladimir Putin. When that failed they switched to the Chinese. Up until they moved it off the front page there wasn't a peep about Israel;

How is the US implicated ? Is the self-styled arbiter of world morality clean in this ? Is Trump buried up to his neck ? Clinton ? Any millionaire Congressmen and Senators ? Forget false patriotism- who are the crooks ? Every citizen of every country should scrutinize their government . ALL OF US.

Trump would not surprise me.

The publication of the Panama Papers this week drives home what more and more people feel - that there is one rule for the rich, and another for everyone else.

this is so engrained into US politics ( plutocracy of oligarchs rule) that I find it difficult to get worked up about.
I should be more enraged//but the quote says it all.

You'll become more engaged as heads begin to roll. The panic is palpable. They'll soon be claiming that leaders' tax privacy is essential for ' national security '


Edward Snowden has drawn attention to David Cameron’s apparently new interest in privacy, in the wake of questions about his family’s tax affairs.

Why does Cameron bother you so much? Will Snowden be exposing Putin's kleptocracy any time soon? How many ten of billions have Putin and Xi Jinping's cronies and families squirrelled away. What about Ghaddafi's family, they considered Libya to be their own private bank.

Cameron supports neoZionist criminality. He's therefore a legitimate target.

I wonder if the Hildebeast and Der Donald are going to be implicated.

I hope so. It's worth a prayer from everybody that still respects America.

Prayer is worthless.

I hope the info comes out just before the GOP and Democrat conventions if they're guilty.

What about all of those corrupt bastards in Africa? You know the ones that receive foreign aid from us and then use it to pay for yachts, mansions and women. . Jacob Zuma and Mugabe has got away with murder so far, but for how long will that last?

I hope Lord Monckton is one of the guilty as well, but he's such a chancer it's unlikely.

The Strategic Defence Package or the Strategic Defence Acquisition was a South African military procurement package.[SUP][1][/SUP] It involved a US$4.8 billion (R30 billion in 1999 rands) purchase of weaponry by the African National Congress government finalised in 1999. It has been subject to repeated, seemingly substantive, allegations of corruption.[SUP][2][/SUP][SUP][3][/SUP]

The South African Department of Defence's Strategic Defence Acquisition aimed to modernise its defence equipment, which included the purchase of corvettes, submarines, light utility helicopters, lead-in fighter trainers and advanced light fighter aircraft. The South African government announced in November 1998 that it intended to purchase 28 BAE/SAAB JAS 39 Gripen fighter aircraft from Sweden at a cost of R10.875 billion, i.e. R388 million (about US$65 million) per plane.

The Arms Deal was plagued by accusations of corruption and in 2011 President Zuma announced a commission of enquiry "into allegations of fraud, corruption, impropriety or irregularity in the Strategic Defence Procurement Packages".[SUP][4][/SUP] The Commission was chaired by Judge Seriti, a judge of the Supreme Court of Appeal and became known as the Seriti Commission.

British and German investigators suspect that bribes of over one billion rand were paid to facilitate the deal.[SUP][7][/SUP] Jacob Zuma, Thabo Mbeki, Schabir Shaik and his brother Chippy Shaik, Fana Hlongwane has been mentioned.[SUP][7][/SUP][SUP][8][/SUP] In March 2003, Tony Yengeni was convicted of defrauding parliament by accepting a bribe while handling the deal.[SUP][9][/SUP] He was sentenced to four years in prison.[SUP][9][/SUP] Andrew Feinstein, an ANC Member of Parliament and the former African National Congress leader of Parliament's public accounts watchdog Scopa, resigned when the party moved to curtail investigations into the arms deal. He wrote a book called After the Party with an insider's view of the process.

Whistleblower Patricia de Lille alleged in Parliament that she had evidence of three payments by warship supplier Thyssen-Krupp on 29 January 1999, each of R500,000, to the ANC, to the Nelson Mandela Children's Fund and to the Community Development Foundation, a Mozambique charity associated with Mandela's wife, Graça Machel.[SUP][3][/SUP]

Zuma might be overthrown and punished by his own people very shortly. Shouldn't Cameron be rushing to supply him with tear gas, cattle prods and water cannon ?

Tubby Tommy seems keen to divert attention away from British involvement in the worldwide tax avoidance scheme, doesn't he?

You should have seen how he tried the blame the Gulf oil spill on anyone but BP.

FAIL, BRITANNIA​

The 'Panama Papers' appear to have revealed Britain's key role as a link to thousands of firms based in tax havens.

UK firms feature as 'intermediaries' more often than almost any other nation in 11 million secret files obtained from Panama law firm Mossack Fonseca.

HM Revenue and Customs is set to probe the documents handed to a global group of journalists, who said they name dozens of world leaders and celebrities using tax havens to hide their wealth.

Britain's huge role in financial secrecy is piling pressure on David Cameron,
