Newsnight Viewers Mock Anthony Travers After Stock Exchange Chairman Dubs Paradise Papers ‘Fake News’
Newsnight Viewers Mock Anthony Travers After Stock Exchange Chairman Dubs Paradise Papers ‘Fake News’
The chairman of the Cayman Islands Stock Exchange has been dubbed a “cartoon capitalist” by Newsnight viewers after branding the Paradise Papers “fake news” and calling for journalists to be jailed.
Appearing on the show to discuss the leak of 13.4 million revelatory documents which claim to show how the rich and powerful have secretly invested vast sums in offshore tax havens, Anthony Travers denied that those involved are guilty of tax evasion, calling the claims “complete heresy”.
“They pay 100% of the tax due in those jurisdictions,” he told presenter Kirsty Wark, claiming there is “no tax edge” to investing in so-called ‘havens’ such as the Cayman Islands.
Referencing a similar leak in 2015, Travers – who was awarded an OBE in 1998 for his services to the government and financial sector – continued: “What have we actually had from the Panama Papers in terms of actual convictions in the UK for anything at all involving tax evasion or tax avoidance? The answer is nothing. Certainly nothing statistically relevant.
Disgusting, repulsive, offensive behaviour by Anthony Travers, Chairman of Cayman Islands stock exchange, on #Newsnight. Fire him, now.

The arrogant & offensive comments from Anthony Travers on #Newsnight regarding tax havens are breathtaking. Nothing wrong he says!

According to the BBC’s economic editor Kamal Ahmed, HM Revenue and Customs have revealed that 66 criminal investigations are ongoing and £100 million of tax could be retrieved following the release of the Paradise Papers.
In the wake of the revelations, many of those named in the leaks have denied any wrong-doing, including Tory donor Lord Ashcroft and Formula 1 champ Lewis Hamilton.

One In Six Have Asked Doctors To Hide Mental Health Problems On Sick Notes, Report Finds
One In Six Have Asked Doctors To Hide Mental Health Problems On Sick Notes, Report Finds
A panel of 250 UK GPs has found that one in six people have asked for a diagnosis of depression, anxiety or stress to be concealed on a work sick note.
A supporting survey of over 2,000 UK adults found almost half of workers (45%) diagnosed with the conditions admitted they would feel uncomfortable telling their employer about it and a further three in five (59%) said they would not want any evidence of them having experienced stress, anxiety or depression on their work record.
This is perhaps unsurprising as research by the charity Business in the Community (BITC) suggests that more than one million UK employees could face demotion, disciplinary or dismissal after sharing mental health issues with employers.
The number of patients with symptoms of depression, anxiety and stress has also risen in the last five years, according to data commissioned by Royal London.
It revealed that GPs spend at least one day’s worth of consultations a week specifically discussing these conditions with their patients – yet those affected often delay seeking help.
Its supporting survey of UK adults found more than half (58%) of those who experienced stress, anxiety or depression for more than a week did not visit their GP – often because they didn’t think their symptoms were severe enough or they didn’t believe doctors could help.
Just two in five (38%) saw a GP within a month of experiencing symptoms and one in five (21%) said they waited more than six months before making an appointment.
The research highlights that many people still see physical illness as a more legitimate reason to take time off work, meaning they are often reluctant to speak to their employer about mental health.
Three quarters (74%) of workers said they are more likely to take a day off work for a physical illness such as a cold or back ache than if they were suffering from stress, anxiety or depression.
“It’s concerning to read GPs report an increase in patient consultations for stress, anxiety and depression in the last five years, but even more worrying that people are delaying seeking help,” Ajay Khandelwal, chief executive at Lambeth and Southwark Mind, said of the research.
“This points to a high proportion of us living with symptoms that could have a severe impact on our day-to-day lives. From feeling unable to leave the house through to experiencing trouble at work or in personal relationships; even minor symptoms of stress, anxiety or depression can quickly escalate and push us to breaking point if we don’t take action.”
Khandelwal highlighted the importance of knowing the symptoms to look out for, such as “feeling out of sorts or not normal”. He said other signs can include a loss of appetite or sleep, a lack of motivation or interest in things you usually enjoy, and having recurring thoughts about feeling out of control.
Of those who sought professional help, 28% said they felt they had made a full recovery, but the majority (62%) felt they had not fully recovered and are still living with stress, anxiety or depression in some form.
Jennifer Gilchrist, insurance specialist at Royal London, said of the findings: “Our research shows that people are delaying seeing a GP if they are suffering from stress, anxiety or depression.
“We encourage people to seek help earlier and if they don’t want to see their GP they could consider seeking help from a mental health charity such as Mind who provide support all over the country, providing long term therapies and peer support groups for people experiencing mental distress and supplementing support available on the NHS.”

Trump Tells Japanese Officials He Never Knew the World Had So Many Countries: WATCH
Trump Tells Japanese Officials He Never Knew the World Had So Many Countries: WATCH
Donald Trump answered questions today at a state banquet in Japan hosted by Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.
He was asked about the rough start to their relationship and revealed that his knowledge of world geography was limited when he was elected:
“So my relationship with Shinzo got off to quite a rocky start because I never ran for office, and here I am. But I never ran, so I wasn’t very experienced. And after I had won, everybody was calling me from all over the world. I never knew we had so many countries.”
Added Trump:
“So I was now president-elect but I didn’t know you were supposed to not see world leaders until after you were in office…it was considered bad form. It was not a nice thing to do and I understand that from the standpoint of the president whose place you were taking.”
He continued:
“So you cam only take so many calls from world leaders because everybody was calling. But Japan you take. And some others. We took Germany, We took Russia. We took China. We took your prime minister.”

More Than Half Of MPs Support Abortion Clinic Protest Buffer Zones
More Than Half Of MPs Support Abortion Clinic Protest Buffer Zones
More than half of MPs would support the introduction of “buffer zones” to stop protests outside abortion clinics, according to a new poll.
A survey by YouGov revealed 57% backed a decision by Ealing Council to explore the possibility of ending demonstrations in the immediate vicinity of a clinic in its area, after local MP Rupa Huq called for a change in the law to protect those receiving treatment.
Huq, who will lead a debate on the issue in the Commons on Tuesday, wants to table an amendment to new domestic violence legislation being brought about by the government.
She said vulnerable women in her constituency are being targeted by pro-life protesters, who she accused of “weaponising rosary beads”.
Ealing Council voted to explore using anti-social behaviour tools, including Public Spaces Protection Orders in response to growing harassment and intimidation outside a Marie Stopes clinic on Mattock Lane.
Of 101 MPs polled on the issue, just 24% said the were opposed to the action being taken, and no Labour members were against it.
Clare Murphy, director of external affairs at the British Pregnancy Advisory Service, one of the main providers of abortion in the UK, said: “A clear majority of MPs support action on anti-abortion clinic protests. For years, a tiny handful of individuals have been permitted to cause women seeking legal healthcare services significant distress. As a direct result of the government’s refusal to engage with this issue, these groups have become emboldened and protests have intensified. This cannot be allowed this to continue.
“We are a pro-choice country with a pro-choice parliament – but this isn’t about the rights and wrongs of abortion. Indeed, we know that MPs who have not traditionally supported a woman’s right to choose are in favour of buffer zones – because they understand that the harassment and intimidation of any woman on the streets of the UK is unacceptable.”
She said a number of other councils were considering taking similar steps and urged Home Secretary Amber Rudd to take action to officially enforce buffer zones.
In October, a cross-party group of over 100 MPs, including Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn, wrote to Rudd – whose own Hastings constituency has seen activists livestream their protest near an abortion clinic on Facebook – calling for the government to bring forward legislation.
In response, the Home Office said it would “explore whether any further action is needed to ensure clinic staff and patients can go about their lawful business free from harassment, offence or alarm”, but to date the government has insisted no further legislation is needed.
