    Lets assume it was more like 1000 per scheme. That's a million taxpayers.

    No wonder they need to hire more debt collectors.

        Someone needs to get on Twitter and back up BeenGauked's conversation with Chris Cook, policy editor of the BBC.

            But Chris Cooke (https://twitter.com/xtophercook) says people were in several schemes.

            So that's ok then

                I must be missing the point somewhere along the line. It is early.

                But what is Cook saying wrong?

                I watched Newsnight last night and he did say that some innocent people were caught up in all of this.
