In a country where most young people cannot afford to buy a home, the fact that thousands of properties are bought through tax haven-based companies, by people who are already wealthy enough to restructure their finances to take advantage of tax havens, driving up house prices, and pushing out owner-occupiers, matters.

His father used a slightly different arrangement, of course, which wasn't morally wrong, obviously. Morality is complicated, too complicated for the proles.
