I think we'd rather keep Apple in Ireland than have the money

Remembering Kerry
|
I always think companies should pay due taxes whatever they may be to any Country they are owed to and which the Companies are in.
However if the govt of said Country is content with whatever arrangement is in place then weighing up the long term as to the short term should also be factors for that govt. If the Irish govt are content, leave things be I would say. Last edited by joeysteele; 01-09-2016 at 08:38 AM. |

The obvious problem is that if you want to be a small island operating as a tax haven for multi billion pound corporations and survive as a nation profiting from their kickbacks,donations and favours that is fine go ahead and base your economy on that but you wont be able to be part of the EU.
Ireland cant have it both ways its either a tax haven or an EU member they have to choose. The EU are well within their rights to demand that their members operate within their guidelines that were set out and agreed upon before becoming members. Last edited by billy123; 31-08-2016 at 01:21 PM. |

They are asking Apple to operate legally in Ireland a country that has chosen to give their consent to the EU to apply their laws. Ireland dont get to pick and choose which EU laws to obey any problems you have with them then its up to Ireland to eiher comply or leave. Last edited by billy123; 31-08-2016 at 01:53 PM. |

You know exactly what I meant by that. If big companies like Apple and Google don't get big tax breaks here they'll just move to somewhere where they will get them

The UK gives tax breaks to the film and creative industry all under the umbrella of the EU, Apple is being looked at purely because of its financial clout and because it's presence attracts other companies, the jealousy this has do stirred up is priceless, considering the Uk voted out of the EU it's no longer your business
