TaxWatch boss says laws are socially 'harmful'
A local activist who featured on the BBC programme which broke allegations of tax avoidance stemming from the Paradise Papers believes they should be viewed from a moral, rather than legal, standpoint.
Phil Craine told Panorama on Monday night that while many of the Island's structures are technically above board, they are socially 'harmful' in a wider sense.
He heads up the campaign group TaxWatch, which pushes for reform in offshore finance centres.
Speaking on Mandate this morning, he said the Island's unique position could be used for greater good:
Ramsey and District Cottage Hospital closure 'inconvenient' but 'significant issues' need to be fixed
Four local authorities looking for by-election candidates
Reinstatement of home births 'remains at top of agenda' for Manx Care
Weekend sailings at risk
