Big Society Revenue & Customs: Pay Day

I have started a new website boycottboots.org.uk
I will be picketing outside Boots Grantham branch with students from Grantham college.

Protest is 12 Noon to 3pm outside Boots on Grantham High Street.

It would be really good if others can campaign outside Boot's flagship Nottingham Branch in the Victoria Centre.

Boot's continue to trade on the UK public's perception of Boots as a philanthropic company.
Jesse Boot was a devout Methodist and aimed to bring the costs of medicines down so the poor could afford them. He would turn in his grave at the people currently abusing his signature as a logo.
Boots typically paid £120 to £140 M per annum in UK tax before the leveraged buy out and financial relocation to Zug Switzerland.

They now pay less than £14M tax per annum.
