Close tax loopholes & stop the use of Offshore Accounts within the UK economy.

What the petition asks

We all pay tax, most of us at source but why is it ok for huge corporations & individuals with enormous wealth to avoid tax altogether? I want our Government to commit to reducing tax avoidance on a massive scale. Close tax loopholes, remove Offshore Accounts & give our economy the tax it needs.
If Brexit is really being engineered by rich politicians and their associates to avoid tax then this petition will get nowhere. On the other hand doesn't it make sense for our Government to want to recover 100% of the tax it is due? Surely anything else makes no economic sense?
