Reader's Letter Of The Day

I've only just got round to reading today's City AM - they edited down my original letter to its bare bones and printed it in today's Rapid Responses:

How about taxing land values instead of turnover, income and profits? Starbucks has its shops in Britain, Google has offices and data centres, and businesses that sell through Amazon have warehouses, car parks and the like. This would be an effective way of ensuring companies pay at least some tax.
