Whether it's tax evasion, money laundering or illicit wealth pouring into our property market, we are awash with dirty money.
The UK's economic crime epidemic is a multibillion pound problem.

This shows what’s corrupt & wrong with our system. Rich people donating millions to buy access to top politicians.

🚨 1/3 Coverage of our new report 📰 with Tax Justice UK in today's The Times and The Sunday Times.
