My mate Neil at W+K London, has pointed me in the direction of a piece in today's Guardian spelling out the devious means and extraordinary lengths WPP goes to to avoid paying corporate taxes in the UK. It's all very complicated, as you would expect, but apparently the main techniques used were the "Irish Branch", the "Dutch Partnership", and, perhaps most difficult of all for outsiders to unravel, the "Double Luxembourg". Yes... Sounds like WWF wrestling holds. Seems like the Poisoned Dwarf has has avoided fucking millions of pounds in taxes, while the BBC News quoted him last year saying that Gordon Brown was threatening corporation tax rises which would cost millions, hit WPP's profitability, and force it to move overseas. What a wanker... And they gave him a fucking Knighthood. The little git should take his poxy company and move to fucking Zambia!
I expect to become Lord Gnome eventually!
