The Global Alliance for Tax Justice invited European media to ‘The Brexit Tax Haven Walking Tour’ on January 17, 2020. The tour visited key sites in the City of London, where four leading experts from the UK and the Global South explained the imminent threat to developing economies posed by the ‘Singapore-on-Thames’ strategy.
This timely event took place ahead of the Fight Inequality Alliance week of action and the World Economic Forum in Davos: "While the 1% meets in Switzerland, with absolutely no mandate, tax justice advocates are calling for world leaders to act now on tax evasion and illicit financial flows before the UK leaves the EU on 31 January", the activistes stated.
The tour was organized in collaboration with our UK-based partners: the Tax Justice Network, Womankind Worldwide and the UK Women’s Budget Group.
