I started a post about this story in the Telegraph:
Up to one million landlords could get a knock on the door from the
taxman as part of a Government drive to track down those who do not pay
enough tax. The move, being introduced by HM Revenue & Customs, aims to
identify those landlords who could be liable to pay extra tax on their
buy-to-let rental income.
And so on. But then I got a feeling of deja vu - I was pretty sure I'd commented on exactly the same story before. Sure enough, I did, in February, when the story was in the Guardian. I still believe a crackdown would be very fair and long overdue - but I'll believe it when I see it.
