Doesn't surprise me in the least! - they're downright rude as well!

Not as such, but at least you can often reason with the tax man, and employ
an accountant to act on your behalf, and things usually happen a bit
slower,
& so gives you time to consider your options... - Not the same as when
you're standing at the "Nothing to Declare" gate, and the C&E
man says
unless you can produce a receipt for your nice new £1500 digital camcorder,
he's going to confiscate it... :-(

Not at all!....
