"But in the UK last year they paid £2.4 million while getting UK sales of £4 billion."
Actually they did even better than that in ripping us all off, because in the same year they also managed to secure grants from the government amounting to £2.5 million.
So it came to paying zero taxes on sales of £4 billion , and getting a nice little extra tip of £100,000 on top of that.
