Default Google and Amazon refuse to yield in tax row

Yes well I use Amazon as it saves me Big Cash
and I ain't going to stop.
Plus some products are only on Amazon via 2nd sellers
And I use Play.com who are even cheaper on many products.




[Google boss: I'm very proud of our tax avoidance scheme
Google's Chairman Eric Schmidt said £2.5 billion
tax avoidance 'is called capitalism'
]

I bet Kizzy has to use Google




[The head of the internet giant Google
has defiantly defended his company’s tax
avoidance strategy claiming he was “proud” of the
steps it had taken to cut its tax bill which were just “capitalism”.
In an interview in New York Eric Schmidt,
Google’s Chairman, confirmed the company
had no intention of paying more to
the UK exchequer. Documents filed last month
show that Google generated around £2.5 billion
in UK sales last year but paid just £6m in corporation tax.]
