Rejected petition Save UK business, remove international VAT evaders trading online Ebay, Amazon and using fulfilment centers

Mainly Chinese companies avoid paying VAT even on stocks stored in the UK by using fulfilment centers called Bird Systems.

This practice is destroying small business who have to pay VAT on stock they import into the UK and sell.

This should be an election debate.
