Panama Papers

A huge leak of documents has lifted the lid on how the rich and powerful use tax havens to hide their wealth. The files were leaked from one of the world's most secretive companies, a Panamanian law firm called Mossack Fonseca.

What are the Panama Papers?

The files show how Mossack Fonseca clients were able to launder money, dodge sanctions and avoid tax.

In one case, the company offered an American millionaire fake ownership records to hide money from the authorities. This is in direct breach of international regulations designed to stop money laundering and tax evasion.

It is the biggest leak in history, dwarfing the data released by the Wikileaks organisation in 2010. For context, if the amount of data released by Wikileaks was equivalent to the population of San Francisco, the amount of data released in the Panama Papers is the equivalent to the population of India.

The Messi family announced the filing of a complaint and the corresponding disproved after the appearance of information of the Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) and the German newspaper Sueddeutsche Zeitung, released in Spain by El Confidencial and LaSexta, accusing him to assemble a network of tax evasion in Panama. They say that "we have never used the society which would vinculate Leo Messi with the so called 'Panama Papers' and the player's lawyers are "studying legal action" against the media that have spread the news. Messi refers to different broadcasted news by international media grouped in the so-called International Consortium of Journalists on creating a corporate structure that would aim to launch a new network of tax fraud news." "Lionel Messi has not carried out any of the acts alleged against him in them, being false and slanderous accusations have designed a new frame of tax evasion and even create a network of money laundering" ensures in the statement. Messi reports that the Panamanian society to which they refer such information -Mega Star Enterprises- is "a totally inactive company, which never had funds or current accounts". The same, according to the statement of Messi, derived from "an old corporate structure designed by the previous tax advisers of the Messi family, whose tax consequences for Lionel Messi already been regularized at the time". In addition, they say Messi declared before the Spanish Hacienda "all income from the exploitation of their image rights accrued before and after the proceedings before the Tax Agency"[40]

Britain is too tolerant and should interfere more in people's lives, says David Cameron

The PM is unveiling measures to crack down on 'extremists'"
 
 
This guy has been pushing all kinda laws that allow the council to look into your bank accounts for bullshit issues, storing everyone's browsing data because we might all be terrorists, but when something is on him it's private?
Why the fuck am I sitting here following the law for when the guy at the top of it can just say nah fam look the other way.

Swiss police have raided Uefa’s headquarters in Nyon to seize details of a contract signed by the Fifa president, Gianni Infantino, following the Panama Papers leak.

The files, seen by the Guardian, show that Infantino – formerly director of legal services at Uefa – co-signed a television rights contract in 2006 with two businessmen who have since been caught up in football’s corruption scandal. Uefa said it is cooperating fully with the Swiss police.

The office of the attorney general of Switzerland (OAG) said the search was “motivated by the suspicion of criminal mismanagement” relating to the sale of TV rights but that “no specific individual is being targeted by these proceedings”.

this is all crazy

whether it was anti-doping organisations, government regulation, or law enforcement, football used to be untouchable

everybody's sweating

The leading Brexit campaigner Michael Geoghegan is not resident in the UK for tax purposes, the Guardian can reveal.

There's a subset of people who see these guys as heroes. Poor idiots who just think they're just poor now momentarily until they get that break, but soon they'll be rich just like these guys and other poor people are just holding them back and have no ambition.

You see it with Trump voters in the US
