Boycott Amazon

We have called a boycott of Amazon over its outrageous tax avoidance since 2012.

In 2020, Amazon announced that its key UK business paid just £14.46 million in tax in 2019 – a 3% increase from the previous year, despite pre-tax profits growing by more than 35%.

We have estimated that in 2017 Amazon’s tax avoidance from profit shifting alone cost the UK £52million.

Amazon promised in 2015 that it would begin to pay a fairer rate of tax. Yet the online giant – which has a market value of over $1 trillion – has refused to keep its promise, at a time when public finances are more vital than ever before.

But I didn’t hesitate, because I knew that it was the right thing to do. In this article, How Amazon Destroyed American Book Publishing
