Important moment from yesterday's #UNTaxConvention negotiations: India provided the definitive response to the (decade-long) attempt by OECD countries to subvert the definition of illicit financial flows by retrospectively removing corporate tax abuse from scope taxjustice.net/2025/11/14/i...

It's day 4 of #COP30 & #UNtaxConvention negotiations, & so far we've missed out on $21 billion in tax to tax cheating multinational corporations & to the under-taxation of extreme wealth. The problem isn't scarcity, it's weakened tax sovereignty. #ChangeTaxNotClimate taxjustice.net/topics/un-ta...

In Germany, the biggest & most profitable companies from the US pay as little as 3% tax on profits earned here. A broad global alliance is necessary to stop the biggest bullies from getting the biggest benefits. Christoph Trautvetter, @steuergerecht.bsky.social #UNtaxConvention #TaxJustice2025

Emboldened by Trump's open calls for US multinationals not to be taxed on their profits abroad, lobbyists are now targeting the transparency measures which will reveal the scale of their tax abuse. For Australia's good, @albomp.bsky.social must refuse to be bullied www.afr.com/politics/fed...

The video on the FT.com front page right now is one for the ages - the collective heads of US big tech fawning over the 'leadership' of President Trump. Their participation tells you about their values. Their specific emphasis reveals what they are getting out of it.

🤖Secrecy has long been a key enabler allowing criminals to escape the rule of law - and beneficial ownership transparency they key tool to fight back against this. But the rise of AI might now change this equation entirely. www.acamstoday.org/ai-human-acc... #FinancialSecrecy

Interesting pieces from @pkrugman.bsky.social and @nathantankus.bsky.social on why financial markets haven't - YET - gone off a cliff in response to the multitude of harms being committed by the Trump administration.

It's been a searing summer for one dodgy millionaire exodus myth. Quick recap of how these claims went from gospel to bogus.

Every other week now there’s more evidence confirming our debunking of these scare stories. It shows how far opponents of #WealthTax are willing to go The UK must make sure its tax policy represents the will of its people, not the yarn of lobbyists #TaxTheSuperRich taxjustice.net/press/hmrc-d...

People still are tragically underestimating what this is doing to our societies. The rich got richer and richer, super rich, mega rich. They are dictating policies. So it gets worse — and they get richer. It tears our societies apart.

Fantastic launch event today for two really powerful studies from the G-24 and @southcentre.bsky.social - showing that a key element of the OECD's minimum tax simply "does not impact *any treaty* between OECD and G-24/South Centre Member States", but UN equivalent would raise significant revenues.

New World Wealth and Henley & Partners seem to be on a warpath to shape public opinion on wealth by repeatedly publishing unreliable figures with little to no context, and ignoring criticism of their methodology and calls for transparency. 🧵on their claims today www.thetimes.com/article/bill...

News: 16500 millionaires are leaving. That's a lot Us: That's less than 1% of UK millionaires News: Wait, 16500 'liquid' millionaires (most mobile) are leaving. That's a lot if you only count 'liquid' ones Us: That's still less than 3% of UK 'liquid' millionaires. So +97% are choosing to stay News:😡

The reports were true: www.canada.ca/en/departmen... I'm wondering what all the business associations in Europe and elsewhere in the world will have to say about this... bsky.app/profile/taxj...

If today’s reports are true, G7 countries will be choosing tax subjugation under Trump over tax sovereignty at the UN. But it’s looking like Trump might not be able to hold countries at economic gunpoint much longer. taxjustice.net/press/g7-has...

The myth of millionaires leaving countries in significant numbers is in the news again this morning. How many are leaving? Less than 1%. #TaxtheSuperRich

Despite Henley & Partners backtracking on their claim about a millionaire "exodus" after we called out their report, news outlets are re-running the "exodus" myth this morning using Henley's latest shaky numbers to scaremonger. 🧵 #TaxTheSuperRich @patmillsuk.bsky.social @taxjusticeuk.bsky.social

Jetzt wo die Verantwortlichen für den Blackout in Spanien feststehen: Ob die Kollegen, die vorschnell die Erneuerbaren verantwortlich gemacht hatten, ihre Kommentare jetzt wohl aktualisieren…?

Our response out now - as the G77 said, a modest step forward. Some real wins to build on, but some disappointment too, especially on debt where the EU has badly let itself down. It is a significant shift for the entire world to move forward together, ditching the US taxjustice.net/press/us-ign...

Millionaire migration rates have stood at near-0% for the last decade. The estimates on migrating millionaires reported in the news, when put into perspective, reveal a picture that is at complete odds with the "millionaire exodus" narrative. #TaxTheSuperRich taxjustice.net/reports/the-...
