In the Tax Justice Network's May 2015 Podcast:
Do our politicians believe in the societies they serve or not? The
Taxcast looks at making the tax returns of our elected representatives
public and the inspirational achievement of journalist Umar Cheema of
the Centre for Investigative Reporting in making Pakistan only the
fourth country in the world to publish the tax returns of its
Parliamentarians. Also: how the British general election demonstrates
political capture by finance interests; libertarian paradise the
world's newest tax haven; and is Singapore trying to shut down
reporting on its tax haven status?
Featuring: John Christensen of the Tax Justice Network, @UmarCheema1
of the Centre for Investigative Reporting in Pakistan. www.cirp.pk
Produced and presented by @Naomi_Fowler for the Tax Justice Network.
A senior Finance Ministry official told me that when the government
of Pakistan decided to make tax data public, they got to hear from the
UK authorities that now we will come under pressure to do the same in
the UK. I don't know when they do but one should hope for the best and
the Tax Justice Network must use the example of Pakistan for
pressuring the authorities in London.
~ Umar Cheema, Centre for Investigative Reporting in Pakistan
