I personally prefer the economist article. I read it back in 06 and I've read a few more on the Ikea tax setup since then. It seems to still accurately represent the situation, some numbers might be out of date but the gist is the same. That ft.com article is a bit sparse, seemingly written as an update for people already aware of the issue, and as you say paywalled.
Thanks for the additional and up to date info though.
