Wow. So, er, this means a rich person made an investment. I am shocked.
No, it means that the rich can find ways to avoid paying tax using off-shore accounts whilst the rest of us plebs have to pay our fucking taxes like we ought to.
The greedy bastards can afford to pay their taxes and don't whilst we struggle along and do, and people like you are quite comfortable in letting them off the hook and saying things like 'that's life' etc. I hope you realise that people like you and me are paying more tax to make up for the tax avoidance these conniving greedy fat cats are getting away with. If you're happy about that then good on you. I don't agree with it and I'm glad these people are being uncovered for what they are: greedy bastards.
It's morally wrong. It's even worse when people like Bono are begging governments to use our taxes for foreign aid, when he himself can't be bothered to fork out what he owes. It's a ridiculous position he inhabits and I feel his position as a campaigner is untenable unless he sorts his tax affairs out.
The 'so bad it's almost funny' leak is concerning the queen's creative accounting. Apparently some accounts linked to the 'duchy' are sitting in 'offshore' banks. you couldn't make this up.
