It must be fun in your world.a world that unless you have read it and it is from a source that you approve of and only confirms your views it does not exist.


To quote a Rowan Atkinson character .the only sensible response to your denial of reality is ,, wibble wibble .!!

Even funnier in your world. By your reckoning, anyone can say anything and expect everyone else to believe it. Odd.

It will be all too easy for Fred or anyone else to disprove that there was not a reference to dodgy offshore trusts in GiB and Guernsey being used by Russians to launder money.
If I had not thrown it away I would quote the page no etc

Any tax haven ,anywhere in the world will be used by the corrupt and criminal to launder their I'll gotten gains.
Anyone who thinks otherwise is really living in the world of the fairies.

Kind of backs up what I said; your post 2411 was pretty pointless, wasn’t it.

‘Any tax haven ,anywhere in the world will be used by the corrupt and criminal to launder their I'll gotten gains.’

And what is it with you and tax havens and trying to discredit Gibraltar all the time? These people have/are laundering money in London, New York, and I could go on but it gets boring. Enough of money laundering now?

You're funny.

First off, to establish an offshore trust in a "tax haven" requires establishing a trust in a jurisdiction which qualifies as "offshore tax haven", particularly in the context you are referring to. By OECD standards, Gibraltar does not even remotely qualify.

Secondly, as Gibraltar conforms to all international standards of transparency in banking, "hiding" any significant amounts of money there would be about the stupidest thing anyone could do. They'd be far better off in say, Belize or Mauritius.

Just like your fish story, you are again making this all up.

Not wanting to get into a silly tit-for-tat now this nonsense has started, I'll go now.

You have made a claim. It is not up to others to disprove it - in fact it is not even possible for others to disprove it.

Busted!

I have realised that this thread has the wrong title.

It is not as it appears to be a thread to discuss anything that relates to Gibraltar but should just be " Freds Daily Bulletins " Do not post unless you agree with everything and anything in the daily bulletin.

E D Milliband in an effort to reduce tax evasion has said that Labour will pass a law instruction ALL British Overseas territories , eg Cayman Islands Channel Islands etc to provide details of all cash movements into accounts judged to be vehicle for tax evasion.
Another move that will be popuar with the UK electorate.
BBC News.

I'm not sure that the UK government would have the authority to impose laws on overseas territories - after all they are to a large extent self-governing.
So this rumour is probably bunkum (like most of Ed Miliband's utterings)

It is not a rumour I have heard it 4 times so far this morning.
The bulletin said that territories that do not comply will be blacklisted.
Justified as it is , still not a reason to vote labour.
David Cameron has tried to get territories like the Cayman Islands and Bermuda to be more open with their activities but has been snubbed.
This Milleband announcement is just a logical step forward from that.
