rlDavid Cameron's father ran a network of offshore investment funds to help build the family fortune that paid for the prime minister's inheritance,rl

A Prospectus for one of the offshore tax vehicles, Blairmore Holdings trumpeted"The fund is not liable to taxation on its income or capital gains as long as such income or capital gains are not derived from sources allocated within the territory of the Republic of Panama," the 2006 prospectus reads.

"The Directors intend that the affairs on the Fund should be managed and conducted so that it does not become resident in the United Kingdom for UK taxation purposes. Accordingly ... the Fund will not be subject to United Kingdom corporation tax or income tax on its profits"'"

So we've got a self-damning immoral Prime Minister who immorally accepted a bequeth of profits gained immorally by his father, all by the said Prime Ministers own definition.

One day this Prime Minister will hand his hat on another peg and it won't immediately bite him on the .

This needs a little work.

Where have you been for the past couple of weeks? What he has done wrong is slag off a comedian for legally avoiding tax while legally avoiding tax himself thus exposing himself as a hypocrite. If Cameron thinks its wrong for Jimmy Carr to reduce his tax bill the legality of it clearly didn't affect his opinion on that.

It also shows he is a bit of an idiot because he ought to have guessed Tory party supporters such as Gary Barlow also engage in such legal tax avoidance and he clearly forgot his own fortune is based on doing the exact same things he supposedly thinks are now immoral.

The saying "Do as I say, not as I do." springs to mind!

yes, I saw the Carr debacle and his £3.3 million etc but 300K is chicken feed in comparison - most MPs from all parties are at it just recall the fiasco with the allowances scandal - most politicians are hypocritical and Cameron is a slimy git to me but he's no worse than the rest of those scumbags including 'two jags' himself..

The £300k is only what was declared in England & Wales, there's no paper trail for any of the offshored £millions his old man had

It has nothing to do with it being chickenfeed in comparison. You asked what he has done wrong and the answer is benefiting from exactly the same thing as what he says is now wrong.

But it's only wrong if Carr does it – he won't comment on anyone else.

I'm waiting for the following press release"My father was an immoral tax avoider. He immorally - though legally - not only built a fortune based in part on offshore tax-avoiding vehicles, but also set up companies that enabled many wealthy UK residents to avoid their moral duty to pay fair tax. The Cameron family and its accountants have now disposed of all the tax-avoiding vehicles, and have calculated that the family benefitted to the tune of approx. £X in tax avoided, which sum, with interest, is being paid to the Treasury today."'"

It really is quite funny in a way. Absolutely whatever they do they manage to c0ck it up. They even managed to turn making fuel cheaper into a PR disaster. It's like the most unbelievable parts of Yes, Minister & The Thick of It playing out in real life.
