The fact is these are people who have steadfastly refused to pay their taxes.

Now assuming they aren't the mountain men of Montana, they have a statutory obligation to pay their taxes just like everyone else.

Because of their refusal my taxes are higher. The odds are these are either people earning a lot more than me, (therefore subject to self assessment) or self employed.

I assume that HMRC can only take the money if it is there?

Therefore they have the money and are refusing to pay it. Now if by HMRC taking the money direct (just like a paye system) saves everyone else money I am a bit lost as to why this is so wrong?
