Hopefully they'll bring this to the UK and we can get rid of BT Openzone.

And get something back for the unpaid tax.

None of their tax was unpaid - they paid exactly what they were legally obliged to pay. (Note that I don't agree that they were paying a morally satisfying amount of tax but ...)

Blaming Starbucks for a broken tax regime where the government bends over backwards to create obliging tax rates and structures for big companies is dumb.
