I'm talking about the MR member called "Rizla" who is constantly posting about the injustice of Amazon being allowed to get away with charging low rates of VAT by basing themselves in Luxembourg .

Which makes it a geographical segregation. One is not guilty of being black or white or fat or thin or any other prejudice like that and in the same way one should not be segregated because of where one lives as if living here means you have more rights and living there means you have less. Especially within a union of countries like the EU.
You do have the same "rights" throughout the EU, but that doesn't mean that you pay the same amount of tax. Each country is free (within certain limits) to set its own taxation policy and rates. That's a matter for national governments, and the people they represent.
