Holier than Thou

I see the Lib Dems have trousered another £220,000 ( see page 98) from Non-Doms via C & C Alpha Group Ltd company reg no: 4590298 during Q1 2010.

This is of course the same company as this who have already bunged Nick’s Holier than Thou Lib Dems quite a few quid according to  this story and earlier bungs from Alpha Healthcare who are ultimately owned by Harberry Investments, based in the British Virgin Islands.

Harberry’s accounts remain hidden due to being based in the tax haven of British Virgin Islands, which does not compel businesses to publicly declare their accounts.

Alpha Healthcare has given the party large sums in the past, including £100,000 last year, £160,000 in 2005 and £10,000 in 2004.

The company’s shareholders, Bhanu Choudrie and his brother Dhruv – also listed as shareholders in the parent Harberry – are Alpha directors.  However the two are Indian citizens, with a ‘non-domicile’ status, which entitles them to avoid British tax on any income or gains from their overseas assets.

So again those nasty Non-Doms who shouldn”t give money to the Tories but it’s OK if you give to the Lib Dems.

Nick Clegg leader of the Lib Dems is of course on record as saying he wants to break up the NHS.

In a little-noticed interview before he took over as leader, he said the party should consider a social insurance system to replace the present tax-funded Health Service.

It would mean healthcare would no longer be free at the point of use – with patients who can afford to pay more getting better care.

As for Clegg why do we have to put up with his holier than thou protestations of innocence. Sad, as I said earlier scratch under the surface of the Lib Dems and the pus starts to ooze.
