        Ah, right. I thought it might be a footballer or similar sporting person, but I suppose civil servants are just as obscure

              HMRC said: "The idea Dave Hartnett cuts a large tax bill in return for a glass of wine and a cheese sandwich is just plain nonsense."

              So it sounds like he's been cutting large tax bills in return for a glass of whisky and a ham sandwich.

                He's been wining and dining with big business and cutting special deals to save them millions on their tax bills.

                Funny, I don't remember having the opportunity to discuss how much I should pay HMRC?
                Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

                  Maybe change your company name to HSBC-Vodafone ltd?

                    I might offer to take him out for a meal in return for a reduction in Corp Tax bill - nothing fancy, just a Pret.

                    Be interesting to see if there approach changes - hopefully lay off small and medium business a bit. Don't mind paying my bit but sometimes as a contractor with my own private company, end up feeling like a criminal what with IR35 etc
