      Private property doesn't mean you can legally prevent people entering your land... and unlike America you can't shoot people for 'looking like they were up to no good'.

        You were an inspector of taxes eh? What can you tell us about IR35 investigation and collection from the dark side then?
        Collection I can't - IR35 was something that I came across now and again - latterly my main area of expertise was the travel rules for employees http://www.contractoralliance.co.uk/...ctor_expenses/ although as an Inspector of Taxes I was trained in accounts investigation, law and practise and am a veteran of over 100 Commissioners meetings etc etc etc

            Indeed, the other day the press reported that the baliffs caused a man to have a heart attack. He owed money for a speeding ticket, they turned up, told him that if he didn't pay at that point then they would come back with a locksmith(!) and then marched him to the cashpoint. At which point his (recently operated on) heart failed.

            This is even AFTER the family told the courts about his medical condition, at which point the courts are not supposed to allow bailiffs to visit. Let alone give him all that baloney about the locksmith.

            They really are the lowest of the low.

                  No I just want to know some tips on staying below the radar of HMRC so they don't come knocking or investigating. Me and just about every other poster on this site.

                    Good luck with it, regardless.
