"UK workers’ pension funds now own just 6% of UK listed shares" (and the rest by tax avoiders/evaders?)

Check out this TUC report on the 90% decline of UK shareholding by UK Pension funds. Our UK companies are now largely owned by tax avoiders (or worse)

• "UK workers’ pension funds get little from FTSE100 share dividends and buy-backs
• New report recommends company law reform and stronger collective bargaining rights to restore fairness for UK workers
• New polling shows 76% of workers back a legal obligation for businesses to give as much weight to the interests of their staff as shareowners

New research published today (Monday) by the TUC, Common Wealth, and High Pay Centre shows that UK workers get comparatively little benefit from share dividends – despite common claims that they do.

The report Do dividends pay our pensions? finds that the proportion of UK shares directly held by UK pension funds fell from almost one in three in 1990 to less than one in 25 by 2018 – a decline of over 90%.

Over this period, ownership of UK public companies shifted from UK pension funds to foreign owners and investors whose identities are often obscured by lax reporting rules.

The authors say that workers in UK listed firms deserve a clearer understanding of who now benefits from their labour, and how much is captured by a wealthy minority".

Having an Amazon Free Christmas

Hi John, Just a quick note before Christmas to say a HUGE thanks for donating to send the tax-dodging Amazon ad van out on the town! It made a bit of a splash - circling Amazon's HQ, and then cruising through London's busy shopping streets: exposing Amazon's dodgy tax tricks to thousands of people in the run up to this week. Hope you enjoyed staying Amazon-free this Christmas - and if you haven't got down to your wrapping yet here's some anti-amazon gift tags to print off and stick on your prezzies! See you for more anti-Amazon antics in the new year :) Lots of love, Amazon Anonymous PS. Check out below for some photos of the van in action: Copyright © 2015 Amazon Anonymous, All rights reserved.

During Christmas dinner, Nigel said a firm "No!" to brussels.

Brilliant. We need more of this stuff to help expose this Tory Front of hate Johnny Foreigners (but happy to employ and exploit them on their farms and factories) Multimillionaire speculators and tax evaders.

Farage is not the sort of bloke you really want to have a beer with because he actually wants to get rid of any employment protection you have at work and then reduce your wages here to those you would find in China.

That's after all, how he made his money.
