He can send me a bunch of his ill gotten money whenever. I accept all forms of payment

Who is he donating his $700M to?

Unconvincing, hypocritical statement by a gent who is hiding 700 million from the tax authorities

Yes has absolutely no moral compass. So much for the Unseen Hand!

Capital-ISM is not immoral - it’s Amoral, says Bono. Wonderful insight.

In the Global Elites control anything can be 'amoral'

When you don't know, blame capitalism, there are enough ignorant people around to agree with you!

When the f*** did Bono turn into Elton John?!

Capitalists are immoral for deliberately benefitting from an ammoral system. Bono is deeply immoral for supporting capitalism. I’m ashamed that he is Irish

Did he say it or sing it? Maybe a little melody? If he ain't singing what is he doing there?

Is Bono and what he has to say still relevant? Simpson's Episode? Oh he's off again let's go to Moe's

What gave this twat the right to say what’s immoral? TaxDodger

Is there no security at the front door or can anyone wander in. bono you 🤡

Why don’t you give your wealth to people who need it ?

Agh Bono be quiet.

Muppet

WANKER

Capitalism in its own right may be “amoral” but many of the individuals pulling strings to ensure that vested interests are placated are immoral.

I'm sorry but my brain and effort does not equate being taxed at 70%, For the sake of wealth distribution.

Oh do be quiet 🤐

Where's all the money from his ONE foundation gone

I'm afraid the hypocrisy of the likes of Bono and Blair does the cause of the worlds poor no favours..

Well he would say that, wouldn't he? 'Exodus 22:24 (25)—If thou lend money to any of My people, even to the poor with thee, thou shalt not be to him as a creditor; neither shall ye lay upon him interest. Leviticus 25:36— Take thou no interest of him or increase; but fear thy God

Here we go Here we go.....again ZZZZZZ

Get back in your box , bell end.

Bono tells business leaders at Davos19: 'It's tax avoidance - not tax evasion'

Ordinary people of ireland tell this rich tax dodging bellend to jog on.

Who let him speak

We already knew that Bono.

So re-distribute your vast personal wealth now, and in its entirety, to people who need it Bonehead? Where does a multi millionaire whose fortune came from expensive tickets, ludicrously priced merchandise, recordings and tax minimisation get off lecturing anyone on capitalism?

Eh that's kinda the same thing when applying it to capitalism...

Its great to know that Bono gives so much in taxes to fund our social services also giving away his concert tickets for free is a great gesture. Great to see someone who actually practices what he preaches. Go Bono 😀👍👍👍👍

LOL

Per OED: “Immoral” means “not conforming to accepted standards of morality” ; “amoral” implies “not concerned with morality”. Bono please copy !

What's the difference between Jesus and Bono ? Jesus doesn't wake up every morning thinking he's Bono

Can he come up with a better alternative? Fact is capitalism and capilist societies are way fairer and better off than any alternative.

And then jets off in a private jet to a tax paradise...

As I recall, that's exactly what those wily Dutch bankers said before U2 moved its 'wealth' to the Netherlands.

Skid Marx...

And transfer your operations to another country to dodge taxes is what? Sublime?

That's not a good thing...

What does that even mean?

But tax dodging is fine.

seriously, how can a man worth €700 million continue to pretend to be an social activist and make these comments without realising the irony. Head too far up his own arsehole,

Business leaders call for second Brexit referendumMore than 170 leading business figures have called for British Prime Minister Theresa May and Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn to back a second referendum on withdrawal from the European Union. No. You don’t get to re-run a referendum just because you don’t like the result (unless you’re the Irish Government). These buisness leaders either voted in 2016 or they didnt. The decision was made then. Its their duty now to deal with what comes. RTE Fake News can't help themselves from a bitta good old scaremongering
