Comment on Whoosh! Slap! Bang! Kerpow! by Chris Jordan

Hi Peter, I’m from ActionAid – and totally agree with you. We we’re really surprised at that 55 of the FTSE 100 were not complying with their legal obligations to disclose information on their subsidiaries. Many talk about the importance of transparency, but seem to struggle to live up to the rhetoric when it’s not on their own terms.

Just on your (excellent) Batman inspired title, I’d like to point out that we also do a lot of behind the scenes work trying to push both companies government to improve transparency around tax affairs. On the company side of things, we recently published this briefing paper on Tax Responsibility (www.actionaid.org.uk/doc_lib/tax_responsibility.pdf), which we hope builds upon your report. Obviously, this type of approach is less likely to get covered on Channel 4 News, but we don’t simply set out to grab headlines.

I couldn’t agree more with this point. The whole credibility of reporting rests on people taking it seriously enough to be frank and honest. Those reports which only tell the good news and not the full picture are boring, one dimesional and, most importantly, undermine the credibility of responsible business practices as a whole.

How ridiculous! a lot of mobile phones barely last the 12 months, so the 18 and 24 month contracts other providers are pushing us into are very unfair. Kudos to Tesco for not tying people into 2 YEAR deals

I totally agree. I saw the ad yesterday, designed in its ‘basics’ style as if to suggest austerity. The environmental cost of mobiles is huge because of the sheer number produced. I’ll be writing to Tesco about this too.
