    Apparently you can ask it tax questions.

    Give it a whirl, and let us know what you think.

    I would caution you not to make any tax decisions based on what it tells you though!

    1. Hello. Why are you shite?

      Why can't you answer the phone?

      Why do you put a sledgehammer through Betty's window for £50?

      When you're under investigation, why do you use your own staff to do it?

      When senior staff members retire, how come they're parachuted into cushy jobs with a nice bit of coin that'll warm their arse pockets for some time..

    2. They delight in lobbying for new laws to vilify the public, playing the victim and acting morally superior.

      HMRC are legalised gangsters masquerading as public servants, no accountability for their crimes.

    3. Hmrc is like a government job creation scheme for the otherwise unemployable. Hopefully, AI will ensure 99% of HMRC wage collectors are eventually sacked.

        So you're quite happy for AI to devastate society as we know it just so long as people at HMRC lose their jobs.
        Glad to see that you're not obsessed in any way.

    4. Why should people who add no value to society be employed by the tax payer?

      1. They shouldn't. Read above: it's a government job creation scheme for the otherwise unemployable

    5. Where have we seen this before? How to have 100 percent office attendance, when you're sat on your arse watching Loose Women.

      Chronic underperformance, it's not like they're going to be sacked just moved sideways. HMRC is Whitehall version of Slough House, they can always just send them there.
