G8 Summit: Taxing Time for World Leaders

The steel-ringed fences topped in barbed wire that have been erected around the Lough Erne golf resort provide an uneasy backdrop for the UK's presidency of the G8 summit of world leaders as it gets under way in Northern Ireland.
Aside from addressing the conflict in Syria, Prime Minister David Cameron has maintained that as host of this year' summit he would ensure that the focus would be on discussing a clampdown on global tax dodging by multinational corporations who hold assets in tax havens around the world.
But is the G8 still relevant? Many fear that little progress will be made in helping the poorest nations, and that the environment should feature more prominently on the agenda. In an exclusive documentary short, IBTimes UK looks at what protesters and campaigners want to see come out of this year's G8.
