---- Amazon avoids paying tax in the UK and other EU countries

I just wondered what you all thought about the way Amazon currently handles it's tax affairs, by routing its business though Luxemburg where it does very little business and has a very low rate of tax it avoids paying corporation tax in the UK, Germany, France and all other EU countries.

As we have to compete with Amazon on many products do you feel that Amazon are not playing on a level playing field?

Do you think there will be a backlash against Amazon? after all morality rides high with peoples shopping decisions these days

Do you pay your corporation taxes?

Are you advertising on your site that you pay your taxes to appeal to customers morality?

The situation seems to be reaching a crisis point with Amazon sticking to it's guns on the issue
