Grumpy Juncker: ‘Call it EUleaks, not Luxleaks!’

European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker today (17 September) gave MEPs an occasionally short-tempered defence of his alleged role in the Luxleaks tax scandal.

Juncker was appearing before the European Parliament's Special Committee on Tax Rulings, set up after it emerged that Luxembourg gave sweetheart tax deals to multinational companies when he was the country’s prime minister and finance minister.
