What I want for Christmas...Pt 1

#1 For the bloody HMRC to stop adressing me as a 'customer'.  

Listen up you language mangling patronising sanctimonious parasites I am, unlike any of you, a real tax payer so that's how you need to address me.

A bit of 'please sir' 'no sir' needs to be introduced into your correspondence.

A 'customer' is engaged in voluntary exchange.  Being a 'tax payer' is to suffer coercion.

Are you sure there's not a competing tax department that you haven't been told about?

Well that all depends on if you're trapped by monopoly. In which case there's no free exchange or very little.

I think it's a fair way to address you. This is the UK PLC after all being run very poorly like every gang or FTSE100 or bank

Indeed there are *several hundred* tax departments competing for your custom. Paying the membership fee for being a member of the UK residents club is entirely voluntary: you can quit the club at any time and seek the membership of hundreds of other residents clubs.

It is like property management fees in a block or an estate: if you think they are poor value, nobody is forcing you to continue living there there is no coercion, so TAKE PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY and shop around for a residents club that offers you a better deal. I hear that the Barclay brothers like the membership fees of Sark and Sir Green likes those of Monaco. There are currently special deals in Malta and Cyprus too.
