This is where you go to comment on the HMRC site, about this horrendous and scary idea..

Her Majesty's Revenue & Customs
HMRC site

And here is the Radio 4 page, where you can 'contact' them to leave your comments, as they were requesting in the interview link above.

So picture this. Your wages are not paid into your bank account. You, along with 40 MILLION others, are trying to get through to the HMRC...who do not answer the phones..(as ever)...

What do you do?
Where do you go?
Who do you turn to?

Not only that, but the ONLY way you have of checking your tax deductions etc, is by going online.

So WHAT do you do if you have no computer????

WHAT do you do if one day, there is no power left to power any computers???????

It's bad enough that most of us in this country get paid monthly into our bank accounts, rather than in cash, weekly, as it used to be, but this is MADNESS. Total madness......

This could see all or many of us with no wages at all at the end of a month's work....??????

And we are supposed to trust the HMRC when they've already admitted to the most appalling fuck up of taxes in the universe...refusing to apologise for one iota of it..AND expecting people to cough up 'alleged' amounts they're told they owe the tax man with NO proof at all, in a matter of weeks!?????

...and of course, anyone who's been overpaid may well have to wait months and months to get any money due to them paid back...

We have lost it as a country, I'm afraid, if we do not come out on the streets over this one...HOW dare they ensure that THEY are in charge of our bank accounts...and they'll have the bank a/c number of every single person in this country...

Bloody Hell!
