This verse from the New Testament came to mind on Friday in light of the fact that I received a bill from HMRC for £1370 and this was on the very same day that there was news of people that the very same HMRC have failed pretty comprehensively in tracking down goodness knows how many tax dodgers. Add to this what I have already read in Private Eye (real news with better jokes) the amount of tax fraud and money laundering that goes on in this country and for the price treating any head of HMRC to a meal in an expensive restaurant a blind eye can be turned it makes me sick to the core of my very being.
So what can a little fella like me do? Yes I will pay up as unlike Amazon, News Corp, Vodaphone, Apple etc I have some sort of morality. However in the future I will be known as Starbuck Al Bin Google, if it's good enough for them its good enough for me!
