#GreenParty leader @natalieben says Amazon UK should pay tax based on turnover? #envy #politics I dont know how much tax Amazon UK should have paid last year - probably quite a lot - but on last nights Westminster Hour she noted: we have multinational companies who simply arent paying their way; you look at Amazon which paid zero point zero one percent [0.01%] of its turnover in tax last year... we have to change that. Scroll to 39:00 for the quote. Package starts at 37:39. For my tastes the whole interview demonstrates a spectacularly unrealistic mindset, but this is an egregious comparison which I believe is made only to ramp up frothing envy amongst people whove never run a business.
