Google to pay £130 million plus in back Corporation Tax. Good. But ....
The Inland Revenue can change the rules every year, and have done a rotten job against the tax avoiding biggies like them, Apple etc. Companies follow the those rules, in whatever way they can reasonably be interpreted. But this won't kill Google, who are turning over £4 billion a year in UK.

20 Years of Treemendous Recycling
Thousands of Dacorum residents have made a great start to being green this 2016 by taking part in the Christmas tree recycling day, held on Sunday 10 January. In partnership with 1st Berkhamsted Scouts and 1st Tring Scouts groups, this successful annual event has now been running for 20 years, and has proved to be as popular as ever. More than 1,000 homes registered to have their trees collected by the Scout groups. The trees were then brought to recycling sites in Berkhamsted, Tring and Hemel Hempstead. Undeterred by the stormy weather the night before, each area also attracted hundreds of drop-in recyclers, with people arriving with their trees from 8:30am. Thankfully, the sun shone throughout the day, allowing families, friends and supportive neighbours to add to the sea of trees due to be shredded. Some dedicated recyclers impressed the shredding crews by bringing their trees along on foot, or even by dragging them along on a push bike. Children as young as two were excited to see the shredder in actio
