Doing this would of course on one hand destroy intra-transfer scam, and also deplete party donations from those businesses that depend on it: both good things if you ask me!Comment

Say Google has got fairly large presense in UK, they employ thousands of people, but do you really think it's a UK business? Relatively to their main operations in USA it's nothing, so it's a US business with UK presence.Comment
