MPs: HMRC must investigate Google

An influential parliamentary committee has called on HM Revenue & Customs to "fully investigate" Google, after finding that the internet giant uses "highly contrived" tax arrangements with the sole purpose of avoiding corporation tax on its multibillion-pound revenues in the UK.

In a scathing report, the House of Commons Public Accounts Committee dismissed as "deeply unconvincing" Google's claims that its UK sales activities take place in low-tax Ireland and found that the company's account of its operations made "absolutely no sense".
