Rejected petition Reform tax law to end the mass exploitation of the system by the very wealthy

We seek a complete overhaul that treats citizens fairly and stops rewarding the super-wealthy / corporations / tax avoiders
More details
"Paradise Papers" reveal extensive blatant abuse of the UK tax system, usually via networks of offshore companies created solely to help avoid tax. The response is often "all tax laws were complied with" but the underlying reason is clear and must be changed. Some examples are listed at http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-41880153
