I think this can be most of the people's interest )what?
Ben surely goes -
Tom - well, can be 
Rob - it's better to know 

it's about informal sector and 'formality' of economy
and politics 

view through them when you have a time, 
there are some neat resources in here.

For 'Tax Haven' Issues+++++++++++++

http://www.tax-news.com/asp/newsjje.asp

There can be more other sites of this type, 
but this one by so far seems not bad -
may worth to be remembered. 

We can map actros like,

ATTAC,
IMF, OECD
JFSC/FSC,

While you are back in Jersey, if you can identify

personnels and families traditionally involved in 
those finance secotors and political/island planning sectors,

and get 'rumours' and stories, I think that could be very useful too. 
It's a small place, so it would be easy to collect all those 
'inside' stories.

Seems ATTAC (ATTAC/France) is well known organisation
in the arena - so it's a kind of shame being 'never-heard-of'
(to myself) - it should be equally well known as Tranparency 
Internantional...why it's not so famous?...

these things are basically Ben(Bernard)'s interest too. 

http://attac.org/
http://attac.org/indexen.htm

go to google.com and just type 'attac france'
and then, a bunch of information. (Mostly in French.)

I tried 'link trace' to check who is putting 'link'
to attac's website 

(type: ' link:http://www.attac.org/ ' into google)

and 

http://www.worldsocialforum.org/

not bad 

http://www.corpwatch.org/

seems very visual and interesting

http://www.ceedweb.org/

one of those kinds

etc...
