re: Will we ever get to the truth about Ashcroft's tax status

I think that all members of the House of Lords (and Commons) should be domiciled in the UK, and pay the appropriate taxes (and I'm a (wet) Tory).

Apparently "Dave" (in quotes so as to be recognisable to Flyboy, David Cameron to the rest of us ) agrees - Guardian
Quote:
The Tories are backing an amendment to the constitutional reform and governance bill to force all MPs and peers to pay UK tax on their worldwide earnings, or leave parliament. That will come into force with the new tax year if the bill, currently going through committee stages, is passed into law.
