Didn’t Rishi try and get the EU to impose a 15% minimum global corporate tax rate for companies? How has that gone with Ireland dragging it’s feet on that? I can’t see this proposal going anywhere.

    We don’t have a “separation of church and state”, there are literally 26 bishops in the house of lords!

      Sorry, I meant in the US. We are supposed to have separation of church and state, but it has really become necessary to have a “separation of corporations and state” as well. The corporations are so deeply involved in politics, writing laws, financing government elections, etc that they may as well BE their own branch of the government.
