Are Amazon paying enough tax? No shows at restaurants and the rules for housework?

BBC Radio Scotland - The Stephen Jardine Programme, Are Amazon paying enough tax? No shows at restaurants and the rules for housework?

Amazon paid even less tax last year, but will this change the way you shop?

Can you be a weekend dad and still be a good parent? Plus the rules for housework, and a listener who fell off a cliff is reunited with the medics who rescued him.

QUESTION OF THE DAY: Amazon
The Internet giant has hit the headlines after reports they are paying even less corporate tax than previous years - £1.7m on £80m of profit. Does it sound fair to you? Or are they just delivering good value to customers?
