HMRC Does Not Care About Tax Fraud Committed by UK Government Contractor, Sirius 'Open Source'

Like CIA people, who run over British people in the UK and then run away to the US (to be protected by their regime)

Sirius staff; Haha, it's OK, the government knows me, they will protect me The man above ran away to the US, where he runs the company Sirius 'Open Source' Inc. (a shell created for the first client, a secret client, Gates Foundation) from a hideout in Washington State, escaping liability for his crimes against past staff and obligations to 2 past wives and 4 daughters



Summary: The tax crimes of Sirius 'Open Source' were reported to HMRC two weeks ago [1, 2, 3]; HMRC did not bother getting back to the reporters (victims of the crime) and it's worth noting that the reporters worked on UK government systems for many years, so maybe there's a hidden incentive to bury this under the rug
