Open property ownership information plays major role in tackling corruption. 133% fee increase is a big blow to campaigners and journalists on low budgets who do the work. Far more important than the minimal income this generates for Land Registry. More in @PrivateEyeNews.

Intu Solutions were incorporated on 30 September 2016. It took HMRC 8 years to put them on a list. Perhaps they should have used the data they already had, to shut them down by Xmas 2016. Also - how did they manage to carry on operating since 2016, without filing any accounts? Alarm bells.

We’ve named Intu Solutions Ltd as a promoter of tax avoidance. They claim to cover healthcare workers, IT consultants and engineers working in the North Sea. If you’re using the scheme, get in touch for help to exit. ⬇️ gov.uk/government/pub…

So why did Parliament create laws like this, that protect and facilitate rapists? It didn't. Parliament voted to remove anonymity for men accused of rape in 1988.

Bloke apparently nicks £2.4m from Treasury using dodgy umbrella scheme, then leaves the UK. He’s now banned for 10 years and can’t do something he probably has no intention of doing anyway. If only HMRC had caught him earlier. gov.uk/government/new…

From Companies House's strategic intelligence assessment, out today, a sense of the scale of the challenge the agency faces in rooting out fraud & money laundering: Company incorporations in Britain far exceed those anywhere else in the world. gov.uk/government/pub…
