‘Saint Bono’ facing huge Glastonbury protest ¿ for avoiding tax | Mail Online.
Art Uncut, an Irish activist group, is whining at Bono, of the richest Rockers- U2, because he has outsourced the publishing part of his industry outside of Ireland, ostensibly for the purpose of minimizing taxes.
Bono’s a leftie of course, and has made a name for himself by espousing charitable causes in the third world. There will be a protest at the Glastonbury festival demanding that Bono “Pay UP” as the poor of Ireland are suffering.
U2 has also been criticized in the past, by politicians, for moving parts of their business to the Netherlands, while at the same time urging their own government to do more for the poor.
