Caring and Sharing with Facebook.

Seems the Taxman in Belgium is using facebook (and e-bay) to keep track of the lifestyles of taxpayers and compare that with their tax return!

I would be amazed if this is not happening in the UK too. I once said in a newspaper article that I had a cottage ‘that I was prepared to rent at a low rent to a young couple’ – come my next tax return, there was the tax man with that cutting snipped out of the paper, not even an advert. Very little escapes them.

Do as I do. Tell them to fuck off.

In all seriousness, I am about to declare myself dead. I intend to send fake death certificates to all and sundry in an attempt to get the bastards to leave me alone.

It’s a £5000 fine if you get caught. Big Deal. I pay more than that in tax every quarter.

Old Holborn.

If you get fined you will pay back taxes plus interest.

Good luck though.
