PM Theresa May Husband Exec For Tax Dodge Investment Fund

Theresa May has bashed big business for not paying its fair share of tax. Reminding them that they have to use the companies infrastructure such as roads and rely on its other public services.


We wonder if she will also be bending the ear of her husband about the company that he works for.

Philip works as a senior executive for Capital International Ltd, which controls an estimated $1.4 trillion dollars worth of assets.

This includes tax dodging companies such as Starbucks, Amazon JP Morgan Chase, defense giant Lockheed Martin, tobacco company Philip Morris International, the pharmaceutical sector’s Merck & Co, and also Ryanair.

According to Capital, Philips job is as a relationship manager in the UK, which entails him making sure the company knows about their customer's goals.

Perhaps Theresa will be interested to know that Capital International have not paid corporation tax since 2009. Private eye is reporting that the company has accumulated losses of 26.4 Million pounds, while still providing its services to its overseas parent company.

Theresa is going to have to prove she is going to take action on tax or may risk being accused of having a rather glaring conflict of interest.

How can we trust someone who has worked for the bank of England, is married to someone who looks after and works for companies that do not pay their fair share of tax?

Now we have an unelected banker in charge of the country, no body elected her as PM and she wants to single-handedly negotiate the British terms of exit from the European Union which continues a record of authoritarian leanings based on her record.

I would expect to see a Brexit that will be good for the bankers, big business and the establishment including Theresa's husband and no doubt their bank balance. Britain is in the process of removing its representation and influence from the EU and passing it to the corporations who will take the money they earn from your work and hord it where it is no good to no one.

Phil in the short term however probably will not be happy with Theresa Mays speeches saying that companies like Amazon should pay their fair share of tax. However this could be another instance of post truth politics, Hilary Clinton too said things like this but no one believed her because of her links to the big banks and big business.

If Therasa may takes no action of tax dodging then she undermines the effectiveness of the political process reinforcing the view that politicians say one thing and do another while looking after themselves and their pals. This opens the door for forces that offer simple answers to complex questions like Donald Trump, who himself is a liar and out for big business and the 1%, playing on baser instincts.

Do you believe the prime minister will actually crack down on tax avoidance or was it all talk.

Labour's Workers' Rights Overhaul: A Mirage of Progress in Capitalist Britain

Labour's Workers' Rights Overhaul: A Mirage of Progress in Capitalist Britain In a move touted as the "biggest upgrade in employment rights for a generation," Britain's newly-minted Labour government has unveiled an ambitious package of workers' rights reforms. While the bourgeois press hails this as a triumph for the working class, a deeper analysis reveals the inherent contradictions and limitations of such reforms within the capitalist system. The Illusion of Change: Examining Labour's Employment Rights Bill The Employment Rights Bill, introduced roughly 100 days into Labour's tenure, presents a veneer of progress that ultimately serves to maintain the status quo of worker exploitation. Let us dissect the key elements of this legislation and expose its true nature. Sick Pay and Parental Leave: Crumbs from the Capitalist Table Among the headline measures are changes to sick pay and parental leave entitlements. Workers will now be able to claim s...

Labour Isn't Working: A Reckoning with a Party That Left the Working Class Behind

By all means, they can wear red ties and sing “The Red Flag” at conference once a year, but don't let that fool you — the Labour Party, as it stands, is no longer the voice of working people. It's time we stopped pretending otherwise. The truth, plain and simple, is this: Labour has betrayed, sidelined, and in many cases outright attacked the very people it was formed to represent — the working class. Let’s talk about history — not the myth, but the facts. The First Great Betrayal: Ramsay MacDonald and the National Government (1931) In 1931, amid the Great Depression, Labour Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald joined forces with the Conservatives and Liberals to form a National Government. In doing so, he oversaw cuts to unemployment benefits while millions were jobless and hungry. His actions split the Labour Party and entrenched the suffering of working people. Post-War Promises and State Suppression The Attlee government is often praised for founding the NHS and nationalisi...

How to fix the UK economy in 7 steps

The UK faces a complex economic challenge: inflation is eroding real incomes, growth is slow, public debt is high, and inequality remains extreme. Meanwhile, a small number of wealthy individuals hold substantial assets, contributing less than their fair share to public services. This plan outlines how we can stabilize the economy, invest in people and infrastructure, and ensure fairness — all explained in clear terms. 1. Fair Contribution from the Wealthiest What we propose: Introduce a modest wealth tax on the richest individuals, with exemptions for small businesses and essential savings. Close loopholes on capital gains and multinational profits. Use the additional revenue for public services, housing, and green projects. Why this matters: Wealth is highly concentrated. Without fair contribution, ordinary citizens bear the brunt of public funding. This step ensures equity and generates resources for growth-enhancing investment. 2. Investing in Jo...
