Not that bad
Life is not that bad if you do decide to step out from under the
-s working at HMRC's grubby hands.
When I saw how the psychopaths and sociopaths working at HMRC were operating like the mafia ignoring law, I decided unless people wake up and vote to change the system, HMRC is going to win because they have the British propaganda media on their side and all our money to fight us with. Public opinion (voters) is by far mostly still against people like us i.e. we are scr*wed.
I settled on HMRC's terms but even after they included IHT in their settlement, they still tried to come after me for IHT after I settled and paid up on HMRC's settlement agreement.
It hammered my (pension) savings.
I was so stressed and pissed off at the whole corrupt system that I decided for my own sanity to step outside. Now instead of me contributing lots of tax to HMRC every month, I've now for years paid hardly any tax because I'm earning hardly anything, sometimes nothing. As a bonus, my blood pressure went down!
The reason I could do this is because I do not have debt. I adjusted my living standard down a bit but to be honest, I am happy and enjoying life. No stress compared to when I was contracting and I am extremely happy that I am not propping up the buggers

at HMRC any more. When . . . . if I run out of money before I go to feed worms, guess what, the state can look after me.
One thing that I will now always do is to vote against whatever the "system" (bureaucrats) tell me is good for me (but really only good for them when you look into it !!!). I have more free time now to follow people and programs not part of the main propaganda media, you people will be shocked at how you are being manipulated and lied to. Just one example, find out for yourself what is really going on inside the EU on a political, economic or social level. Nuff said.
But back to my point, life can be enjoyable not propping up this broken corrupt system. I now have time to enjoy life.
OK off to do a bit of DIY . . . . . hmmm the good life.Comment

If you say they inc IHT in your settlement, (and was paid then I assume) how could they request it again? Or was the 2nd time by mistake and from a different dept within HMRC? I know they have trouble communication with each otherComment

Stealing this from someone on Twitter:
DO NOT TRUST HMRC!
DO NOT PAY HRMC tax not owed!
DO NOT SETTLE!
DO NOT ANSWER PHONE CALLS (LETTERS ONLY).
DO NOT PANIC! (they do apparently)
DO YOUR SAR REQUEST (so that they crumble).
DO NOT EVER GIVE UP!
THE RULE OF LAW & KARMA IS ON OUR SIDE!
KEEP FIGHTING - THEY WILL LOSE!Comment
