Email from Liam Fox / HMRC - they want to export me!!

You're not special. Here's mine. Seems slightly different:

Dear Director

Dear Mr. Fox,

I am already exporting my services abroad.
But what would you know about that or any other business issues, you fat, lazy, piece of crap, sucking on the tit of the public sector, as you have all your life?

Most sincerely, SG.

or finally realising that small companies exporting goods is far better for the UK than large companies exporting profits.

from memory I received a similar letter 16 years ago. My parents 40 years ago.

Small companies do export into the EU all the time, very simple, you just need to read "business/contracts" on the forum, obviously now they'll be expected to expend huge amounts of money to visit far flung places in completely different time zones.

Good luck with that, sounds like desperation

Could be, but more likely a desperate "Breliar" trying to pull the wool over your eyes.
