Did you know that over 15 times as much money is lost through tax avoidance at the top than is lost to benefit fraud at the bottom? That’s £15BN of public money lost to a powerful elite who can afford to pay tax advisers!

So Compass, The Fabian Society, The Other Tax Payers Alliance and the Tax Justice Network UK have organised a major rally to call for greater tax justice in the 2009 Budget.

So come and join us next Wednesday 15 April between 6-7.30pm at the TUC Council Chamber (Great Russell Street). Come and hold to account the Treasury Minister, Angela Eagle MP and debate with Richard Murphy of Tax Justice Network UK and G20 Voice blogger, Kate Green of Child Poverty Action Group; Adam Lent of the TUC; Tim Horton, The Fabian Society and Jon Cruddas MP. To register email ‘tax’ to: info@compassonline.org.uk

What will you pledge?
