Tackle the tax dodgers

Published: 20 August, 2010

• WHY is the Conservative-Lib Dem coalition government so committed to hounding benefit cheats and yet appears to be turning a blind eye to the biggest fraud of all – tax evasion. 

It is estimated that benefit fraud costs the taxpayer somewhere in the region of £1.2billion but the equivalent in tax evasion is between £140-£160 billion or possibly even more.
