Bump... How to pass a rainy bank holiday Easter weekend...

Whilst reading the latest Telegraph article about George Osborn and tax, I had an idea.

If we commented about Section 58 in the comments section of every news article regarding Osborn/UK/Cameron and tax (regardless of how relevant), the subject would soon start appearing at the top of Google searches.

Can you imagine the embarrassment every time anyone from government or business searched for UK and tax, and was hit by our story?

What we want to be is a thorn in the government's side that never goes away. One way we can do this is by dominating search engine results.

So... your homework for this weekend, should you choose to accept it is to comment on Section 58 of the 2008 Finance Act in the comments section of as many tax newspaper articles as possible:

Here's a list of articles to start you off:

The letter to Indian prime minister Manmohan Singh - Telegraph

Osborne 'very happy' for government to consider publishing MPs personal tax returns - Telegraph

Please can everyone add a comment to this FT thread below

Osborne backs Vodafone on India tax | beyondbrics | News and views on emerging markets from the Financial Times

All:

May I suggest that EVERYONE kindly clicks on the above website and writes a comment. This is a very serious and serendipitous event for us - we must capitalise on it now. When the FT sees how many readers responded, I suspect they will write again in the paper about it, and after all the FT is the world's leading financial newspaper; one of great influence.

Vodafone by the way is the FOURTH largest company in the UK. The fourth. And Osborne is supporting them against India's s58 equivalent. It's utterly disgraceful.

Thanks
