HMRC is Just Taking Taxpayers' Money and Not Enforcing the Law (or Selectively Enforcing It for the Political Masters)

Summary: What we've been demonstrating or highlighting so far this year is a defunct system of accountability, wherein the government officials and their associates are essentially above the law; can they endure the negative press that entails?

AS noted earlier in a meme, it's now 3 weeks since reporting to HMRC that Sirius 'Open Source' lied in its tax filings when it issued false payslips. It told staff that pension payments had been made (every month for more than half a decade), but no money was paid. The company's managers basically stole the money. It's a crime, it's embezzlement, and punishment for this crime is severe (there are many crimes committed all at the same time).



"We've written for nearly a decade about immunity and impunity in the EPO and now I (along with former colleagues) witness the same in the United Kingdom..."As the above video notes, seeing that HMRC doesn't seem to care (probably too busy scrutinising the accounts of activists or political 'enemies'), we're progressing and moving onwards to additional steps. Many points of escalation remain. Thus far, the experience has been boding ill/poorly for the system of justice and enforcement in the UK. It's like some kind of Kafka novel, wherein one turns from place to place like a ping-pong ball. Somehow some people are pretty much "above the law". What might this do to public confidence in the "checks and balances"... or in slogans we're shown on TV and radio (mass broadcast) about no escaping the wrath of the Rule of Law? We've written for nearly a decade about immunity and impunity in the EPO and now I (along with former colleagues) witness the same in the United Kingdom, a country where a "prince" can sleep with underage girls and then pay our tax money to "settle" and avoid extradition/arrest. The only person arrested over it was a protester who had 'heckled' him at his mom's funeral.
