Tax ranting #10 - Free speech

[king_pellinor]

Richard Murphy, the Tim Coates of the tax world, has recently banned me from posting on his blog.

Apparently, when I suggest that a company should follow the laws of its home country, rather than those of a country it doesn't operate in at all, I am promoting crime. 

Presumably crime is now defined as "doing something Murphy disapproves of ", rather than that outmoded "breaking the law" thing.

Oh Woe.

I've never been more proud of you!

Yes, well done, that's quite an achievement!

Although, not to retract my previous approbation, but the feller seems to reserve the right to ban people from his blog for almost anything!!!

Quite - you don't have to be a yes-man to post there, but he won't tolerate "no". Disagreeing with him just shows how far removed from the mainstream your political views are :-)

Hahaha : You may disagree with me a little, but not a lot!
