Vodafone tax dodge

Vodafone have recently managed to dodge a huge tax bill of 6 billion pounds funnily enough at the same time that 7 billion pounds worth of welfare cuts have been placed on the UK. £6bn is 85% of the £7bn the Chancellor has cut from the Welfare bill per year. Why isn’t the Chancellor asking companies who operate here to pay their fair share of tax if the deficit needs to be plugged now? Why hit the elderly, the disabled and the poor instead? Vodafone is the perfect example of a system that has become biased towards powerful corporations and against ordinary people.
