Everything working to plan.
Ever pound spent on a tax Investigator yields many times that, so cutting their numbers only makes sense to.the rich.

HMRC claim that only 5% of UK don't pay their taxes.
That 5% is worth £36 billion a year!
I've got my suspicions about who that 5% are. Damn you you single-parent, new trainer-wearing, work-shy benefit claimants! Damn you!
I'm not surprised. Anyone who has to interact with HMRC regularly knows they don't have nearly enough staff and they are so behind it's untrue. They likely don't have the manpower to do investigations.
Likely? Definitely don't, and by design. A statistically significant portion of the tax evaders are in parliament, no doubt.
