UK's NPower: pay your taxes

The UK's Sun newspaper has an article entitled Watt? No Tax? Npower avoids paying £108m to HMRC by funnelling massive sum to German owners via Malta.

As the Sun summarises:

"Energy giant npower has dodged paying up to £108 million in UK corporation tax in the past four years — by funnelling cash to Malta.
. . .
[The revelations] will infuriate the company’s near seven million customers who are receiving record bills."

TJN's Richard Murphy helped the Sun with this story, and he's followed up with a series of blogs:

NPower’s defence for tax avoidance is ridiculous: why can’t they just tell us what they’re doing?
