    Yup - good idea.

    Though just don't send it to Jesse Norman...!

      I've removed the contact details from the original post to stop spider bots from using it as a way to boost rankings for that "business", whose website was only registered last month

        Well there aren't any contracts around at the moment so what does a tulip saleswoman do beyond finding something else to sell.

          And yes, they are a recruitment consultancy run by a 55 year old lady in Wrexham, under a few different names. One of the other names is actually registered at CoHo and has been for 18 months (yet to submit any accounts). The current domain used for the email in the first post is very similar to a healthcare firm who is unrelated to them.
          Their LinkedIn profile is just repeating the same post about HMRC - 10 times in the last 6 days.

          And while they appear to be a big company, several of the posts on LI use "I" not "We" when referring to the business.

            Good call. Sorry about that. Didn't even think.

              In all seriousness, I'd send it the people in the recent webcast for the Finance Bill Sub-Committee on 10th Feb.

              These guys seemed to be asking all the right questions. Well, most of them...
