  2. How is this allowed to continue without MP oversight? They just shrug their shoulders and hide behind excuses.

    Would they wait a year if they were chasing punters for money?

  3. I've mentioned this before, all the tax legislation in the UK isn't fit for purpose. Hyper complex rules and regulations that benefits the elite but not regular people.

    5.5 billion people overpay tax in some form, yet others fall foul and have a brown envelope.

    This country is down the toilet and without wholesale change there's no coming back.
