There's quite a kerfuffle about the 'Panama papers', a huge leak about tax havens, or at least the lengths some people got to avoid tax, which may or may not involve tax havens. It's all a bit too complex for a simple current account owning pleb like me, but it seems a rather fishy tale. Expect more, as the experts sift through 11.5 million files. I'd actually like them to find my name in there.
Part of Tata Steel is (hopefully) set to be purchased by an investment group and they want to rename it British Steel as part of the deal. Sounds like a good idea to me.
Mind you, Great Western Railway (a rail franchise run by First or similar) have been reprimanded by the advertising authorities for implying they were owned by the region, and therefore a public company. Surely a new British Steel would suffer the same fate? Perhaps ownership will help rather than just being an operating company otherwise I can see British Rail appearing at a station sign near you.
