WBR: Australia Declares War on Tax Avoidance 11 May 15

Mon, 11 May 15

Finance Minister Joe Hockey promises to pursue profit-diverting multinationals1. We find out more from John Osborne at the Australian Chamber2 of Commerce and Industry. Chile's president Michelle Bachelet has sacked key cabinet members as she becomes mired4 in controversy5. The BBC's Gideon Long reports from Santiago. Also in the programme, will Picasso's Les Femmes D'Alger become the most expensive painting sold at auction6, ever? Art experts Emma Ward7 and Harco van den3 Oever tell us what's going on. And our regular commentator8, Lucy Kellaway, explores the instructive value of spying on business clients, when they're not looking.
