    I note the last sentence in the article. They're already preparing to blur the success line, now the emphasis will be on how many settled before going to court. They will count uncontested APNs as a success, completely ignoring the fact that the reason they are uncontested is because they have stripped people of the ability to defend themselves.

      Or people settle because they feel they have been bullied into a situation of despair and the only way to escape HMRC's scaremongering campaign is to settle, before HMRC threatens to cut off thumbs and torture your children.
