Small point, would any of us if asked if we would like to pay less tax - actually turn around and say no. Honestly.

The fact is that most of us cant avoid tax and struggle to give our families a decent life, shouldering the burden of the country's debt while paying the share of Barlow's, and other members of the British Honours brigade. Think about that before you cheerleader  these 'heroes'.

Yes, I will go along with the OPs thoughts.  And perhaps the Queen should have hung something else round he's neck. I know I would.

Yes, Joe # 4 spot on: ''The Prime minister has no comment to make on Gary Barlow's tax affiars''. David Cameron's official spokesman. (heh!)  But Jimmy Carr's tax affairs ARE morally wrong. (heh!).
