    Everybody's up in arms about someone making a couple of quid and not telling the taxman. No wonder this country is going to the dogs, initiative is crushed by pointless beaurocracy and an army of snitchers who resent anyone with a bit of creativity and gumption getting up off their bum and doing something for themselves.
    What a load of rubbish!! At what point do you think they should declare earnings then? Is it still alright to evade tax at £100, £1000, £10000? At what level do you or anyone else get to say that its alright to not pay tax?! Get real!!

    I'm all for creativity and getting up and doing something - but do it within rules whether you like it or not. I'm self employed and I followed the rules from day 1. I don't particularly like paying tax but thats tough. Perhaps the country is going to the dogs because of the people evading tax as well as all of the benefit cheats who are just as bad!!
