    Cameron had his hand in an EBT

    Cameron ‘lobbied senior Downing St aide and Matt Hancock’ to help Greensill | David Cameron | The Guardian

    The Observer can reveal that Cameron was in line to profit from a $30m (£21.8m) employee benefit trust registered in Jersey thanks to his role with the collapsed Greensill Capital.
    Would Cameron have had the HMRC on his back demanding settlement?

    Answers on a postcard please...

    Good time to ask Camooron about those shares that he sold before he became PM: CGT on them was so low that between him and the missus he did not owe any money, time to ask for written valueation agreement he received from HMRC assets office _and_ whether he bought back those shares and for how much.

      No, because the way they'd make that $30m is by taking debt collection action against users of the trust... alledgedly.

      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        Are you saying that the UK's ranking on the World's Corruption index should have been lower since 1997? Then decreased every time a new PM was elected?

            I think that he was implying that Cameron was swimming with sharks...

              Not that long ago, over the Expenses scandal.
