As stated that's not the issue, the issue is even in the most aggressive cases it's in their interest to try it on because the tax man is so wet he'll do a deal with them after court has found in our favour that equates to the company not even paying back the amount that should have been due in the first place. Let alone without interest being added for the years it dragged on.
