Because Joe Public hasn't the faintest idea about how HMRC approaches thier work; if you're on PAYE they're largely invisible.
The PR from the PCG is all about getting HMRC to have a duty of care; right now (as Montpelier's "clients" are discovering) as long as they get their cut, they don't care what collateral damage they cause. Arctic was another example. £500k and five years spent to recover a £7k bill that might have resulted in a gross annual tax recovery of no more than £200m. Geoff Jones is a strong and determined man and Diana went through several kinds of hell over that case; a weaker pair would have crumbled long before. Not exactly the way we want our country run, is it?
