I get that, but if those measures hadn't been put in place the total UK tax revenue today would be over 20% lower. Just goes to show how big the problem was and still is if £800 million is being invested.
Wow, so previously UK plc was down on £160bn in terms of tax revenue. Considering total tax revenue is currently around £716bn, that £160bn represents a very significant proportion.
I wonder how many more extra billions we will have coming in after another 7 years?
