Quote: Standee "bless, truth hurt does it, you may be a qualified auditor, but counting the pies in Greggs doesn't equip you with better accountancy skills than HMRC, who have no issue with our accounts (filed on time, for many years)'"
Oh my naive friend... Filing accounts has nothing to do with hmrc tax investigations - with powers to go back up to 20 years. Ebt's have specifically targeted by hmrc and that has zip to do with corporation tax nor filing accounts. The real truth seems to be very creative accounting by your previous owners to create a value which your new owner has now partly disclosed.
I've probably lost you by now as you bask in the delusion of a brave new future but I think the real truth will hurt you even more than your juvenile commentary.
