You would seem to be suggesting that 'cheating' share holders is in some way worse than 'cheating' citizens of the country in which they operate? I would respectfully disagree with that viewpoint.
They are not cheating the UK, whatever you think of their methods they are legal. If not, then they why not go after them? It is up to the UK and EU to make them illegal. You cannot "demand" that companies voluntarily pay more than they legally have to and condemn them if they don't. I am not arguing that Amazon should not be forced to pay more taxes in the UK than they do now, but this is something that lawmakers must fix.
