Independent shops in SE22 - fair tax

[Minitoots]

A programme on BBC2 BBC 2 ON WEDNESDAY 20th January called 'The Town That Took on the Taxman' should be of interest to our local independent shop keepers in and around East Dulwich.

The local traders of Crickhowell in the Brecon Beacons are embarking on a mission to copy the techniques used by their multinational rivals, and to set up a DIY tax avoidance scheme of their very own to help their small independent shops going.

this looks very interesting, I grew up in CrickHowell, there was recently a battle to stop a pub being turned into a Tesco metro or Coop.

good - hope you enjoy the programme, ArthurE ! I'm just interested as a long term resident of East Dulwich, wanting to keep our area with its lovely independent shops safe from the chains....
