Two things in life are inevitable, death and taxes. HMRC are another leg of the equation. Years ago my mate was behind with VAT payment and they turned up with a lorry and a warrant to clear him out. He paid up pretty sharp then.
Mr Brown and Mr Darling need every penny at the moment to pay bank bonuses
So how much money have they just wasted organising and manning a raid before checking their intelligence
HMRC are typical of the public sectors lack of basic commercial/financial nouse. They get paid BY US to waste more of OUR MONEY being
inefficient, overly complicated, beuracratic (sp?), little jobsworths.
I'm not condoing tax evasion by the way - that makes me even more as it's basically direct theft from the rest of us
....did I tell you I don't much care for the HMRC
BTW Jon, a little ring twitter now and again keeps you on your toes
HMRC is one organisation you DO NOT mess with. They have powers that you would not believe and there is not a lot you can do about it. If they suspect that you have something hidden in your car they can literally take ever last nut and bolt apart until they find nothing and then just walk away leaving YOU to put it back together without a hint of an apology.
The government will always spend 100 times the amount they are going after in administration, and they feel they are 100% correct all the time. You give them what they want, and say "thank you, sir". That's a good boy.

that is something to bear in mind next time I need some part replaced on my volvo.
An anonymous phone to HMRC:
"Hello, is that the HMRC? I think there is some unpaid VAT inside the front offside wishbone in the Volvo registration XXX at address YYY ...."
What makes me angry is theres a scroat thats ripping off his workers tax and vat and they still have not got round to sorting him out. Despite
having the details
