18/02/2011 Big business & Big Society | Local govt spending | Corporate tax | Parliament vs EU
A weekly look inside British politics from the 大象传媒 with Dennis Sewell
David Cameron nails his colours to the Big Society, but should he send for big business to sort it out? Co-Author of "The Road to Ruin - A new capitalism for the Big Society", Michael Green, adds his voice to the debate.
Local Government blames central Government for closing libraries, but are they taking the public for fools in the information age? Michael Sinclair of the Taxpayers Alliance group has studied the detail of local government spending and speaks to us.
When Big Business avoids paying taxes, is it serving shareholders or cheating the taxpayer? We speak to John Christiansen who started the Tax Justice Network back in 2003.
And another round in the battle between the sovereign Parliament and European Judges is debated for us by former Europe Minister Chis Bryant MP and the international lawyer Lord Brennan QC from Matrix Chambers.
All that in Politics UK presented by Dennis Sewell.
