David Cameron will try to avoid close dealings with tax-dodging businessmen in future, he pledged yesterday.
The Prime Minister, whose party has been accused of being too close to the rich, said the Government was cracking down on individuals and businesses carrying out ‘aggressive tax avoidance’.
When asked if he would try to avoid dealing with tax dodgers, he told the BBC: ‘Generally speaking, yes, I think that’s sensible.’

But he refused to comment on Sir Philip Green’s tax affairs – the billionaire retailer who was a Government efficiency adviser.
Critics accuse Sir Philip of avoiding millions of pounds of tax by registering most of his business in the name of his wife Tina, who lives in Monaco. Mr Cameron said: ‘He came up with very sensible suggestions for how you could reduce costs in government and therefore reduce people’s tax liabilities.'
