    HM Revenue & Customs in £1.6bn cost-cutting 'challenge'

    It said money-saving plans included cutting staff numbers by 10,000 and reducing the number of offices but said the measures needed to be developed.

    They could start by getting rid of the eejits that think that public money should be spent funding 8 year IR35 investigations that yield the sum total of zero pounds.

      That'll be them Socialists with a culture of envy and spitefulness.

        In defence of the HMRC eejits, if we didn't have them we'd be like Greece.
        Although I'm glad they're being rationalised.
        Hard Brexit now!

              That's not allowed. The rich need to be able to 'cook the books'. Tax is for for the peasants.

                  A good case could be made for complete abolition.

                    Abolish Income Taxation and Social Security.

                    Grant each and every UK Citizen a flat 'Dignity' allowance per month - paid automatically into Bank Account.

                    Withdrawl of UK Miiltary from all OverSeas Operations - dedciate UK forces to protection of the realm only.

                    Abandon Trident.

                    Leave the rest to the Free Markets.
