			The Gary Barlow tax avoidance case has put things into perspective.  According to Channel 5 this morning: 
 
Each year, tax avoidance costs the UK economy £69.9 billion pounds. 
 
Each year benefit fraud costs the UK economy £5.2 billion pounds. 
 
Try and guess which is covered more in the newspapers, has it's own free hotline to report wrongdoers, has numerous television programmes made about it etc etc...
