          now Bern. That's just unreasonable. You know you can only pay small taxes if you've already got a lot of money

          @BBCNews so member states don't have the right to strike their own financial deals? Another reason to BREXIT.

          Irish are not famous for their generosity but sure as hell smart about money matters. Short term gains vs long term returns.

          confirmed - zero tax for the Golden arches while hiding in Luxembourg. Nice way to run a multi national corporation.
