… The Shift in Human Nature

You're starting to see integrity change. Awareness recalibrates integrity, and the Human Being who would sit there and take advantage of another Human Being in an old energy would never do it in a new energy. The reason? It will become intuitive, so this is a shift in Human Nature as well, for in the past you have assumed that people take advantage of people first and integrity comes later. That's just ordinary Human nature.

In the past, Human nature expressed within governments worked like this: If you were stronger than the other one, you simply conquered them. If you were strong, it was an invitation to conquer. If you were weak, it was an invitation to be conquered. No one even thought about it. It was the way of things. The bigger you could have your armies, the better they would do when you sent them out to conquer. That's not how you think today. Did you notice?

Any country that thinks this way today will not survive, for humanity has discovered that the world goes far better by putting things together instead of tearing them apart. The new energy puts the weak and strong together in ways that make sense and that have integrity. Take a look at what happened to some of the businesses in this great land (USA). Up to 30 years ago, when you started realizing some of them didn't have integrity, you eliminated them. What happened to the tobacco companies when you realized they were knowingly addicting your children? Today, they still sell their products to less-aware countries, but that will also change.

What did you do a few years ago when you realized that your bankers were actually selling you homes that they knew you couldn't pay for later? They were walking away, smiling greedily, not thinking about the heartbreak that was to follow when a life's dream would be lost. Dear American, you are in a recession. However, this is like when you prune a tree and cut back the branches. When the tree grows back, you've got control and the branches will grow bigger and stronger than they were before, without the greed factor. Then, if you don't like the way it grows back, you'll prune it again! I tell you this because awareness is now in control of big money. It's right before your eyes, what you're doing. But fear often rules. …

“… The Fall of Many - Seen It Yet?

You are going to see more and more personal secrets being revealed about persons in high places of popularity or government. It will seem like an epidemic of non-integrity! But what is happening is exactly what we have been teaching. The new energy has light that will expose the darkness of things that are not commensurate with integrity. They have always been there, and they were kept from being seen by many who keep secrets in the dark. Seen the change yet?

In order to get to a more stable future, you will have to go through gyrations of dark and light. What this means is that the dark is going to be revealed and push back at you. It will eventually lose. We told you this. That's what you're here for is to help those around you who don't see an escape from the past. They didn't get their nuclear war, but everything else is going into the dumper anyway. … “

We'll hunt down the tax avoiders

The Guardian has exposed individuals who abuse the system. The government is taking action to crack down on these practices

Tax avoidance, sham directors, money laundering: the recent Guardian investigation made sobering reading. In the UK we are proud that it is easier and cheaper to set up a company here than just about anywhere in the world. This flexibility is hugely valued by the start-ups and small companies which create a significant proportion of our wealth and jobs, and which are vital to recovery from the latest recession. But this flexibility provides a challenge: how do we stop our system from being abused by people who want to use it to dodge tax or to launder the proceeds of crime?

This is not a new problem. From the Sark-larkers of the 1980s, who briefly made a small island in the English Channel into an (apparent) global centre of company formation, to the issues highlighted by the Guardian, the UK has always been confronted with individuals seeking to play the system. British company law and corporate governance is, in general, globally respected, and the vast majority abide by the rules. That is why we must identify and stop the minority who sail too close to the wind in order to protect the UK's reputation as a trusted place to do business.

Becoming a company director carries with it legal responsibilities which, if breached, can result in disqualification, fines and prison. Some people think that putting up a straw man as a director makes them immune from the consequences. This is not the case: if you are acting as a director, you are liable.

The government takes breaches of the law seriously. Last year we disqualified more than 1,100 directors, including people who were not formally registered or appointed as directors and shadow directors. We also wound up 355 companies in the public interest and pursued many others for tax evasion and other offences. We are investigating the allegations against the individuals and companies made by the Guardian and Panorama and, where there is a strong legal case, we will take action. We are also reviewing our legal and enforcement priorities to ensure that we are focusing resources on the most serious abuses. Concerns have been raised about the potential abuse of arrangements for hidden ownership, and I am attracted to the idea of increasing transparency to prevent the concealment of corporate control. Where there is flagrant abuse of corporate entities, we will seek to tackle it.

Many of the more sophisticated schemes cross international boundaries, looking to use weaknesses in local laws or international co-operation to hide activities and assets from national law enforcement and tax authorities. We must build on the emerging network of intergovernmental co-operation to counter tax evasion and avoidance, and have recently signed an enhanced tax information exchange agreement with the US. We are looking to do the same with other jurisdictions.

We need to drive forward global improvements to transparency to tackle corruption and drive prosperity and growth for all, and we are determined to lead international action in this area. In the developed world, we should put our own house in order – and thereby help developing countries to prosper too.

The UK has also been working to ensure that the EU sets a new global standard for transparency in the extractives industry. Tough new rules on reporting are designed to ensure that citizens of developing countries can hold their governments to account over how payments from oil, mining and gas companies are spent. This will help ensure that the sale of natural resources benefits the many, not the few.

The message we need to send is simple: there should be no hiding place for the proceeds of crime, corruption and tax dodging.
