'I am disgusted with the HMRC. I am disgusted with HSBC. And I’m not paying a penny more,' the actor declared.
What do we make of this?

HMRC can forcibly
seize or freeze assets/accounts in order to settle tax debts and in fact do
this regularly instead of pursuing criminal convictions, so I can't see that
going very far. Think it is more likely the HMRC will go down the more
practical route of forced financial punishment than martyr these idiots with a
custodial sentence. Jail or convictions are generally reserved for those with
no assets to seize, unless these two intend to sell everything they own, live
on the streets and give all their money away or put it in an account that can't
be accessed by the taxman. Or they can move abroad just like the rest of
those who pontificate about the tax system but don't actually pay anything.
What a surprise, socialists who don't understand how a country's finances work.

These guys. I love it when millionaire luvvies start banging the right on drum. They've even got themselves the latest must-have 'conscious celeb' accessory in the young lad they plucked from Rwanda.
The irony is, they know that they can pull something like this because the very things that are stopping HSBC from getting in deep shit over this are the same ones that will protect them. If I told the inland revenue that I wasn't paying any more tax until they sorted out their affairs with HSBC they'd be on me like a rat up a drainpipe.
