// where he confirms that the payment of VAT is not the business of the customer.//

baaaarp ! non sequitur ! score one to Naomi

conspiring to evade paying a tax ( read the OP again) IS the business of the customer, is against the law and is a crime

I have told the mods this thread shd go up in smoke
but no they seem content to host a site where crime conspiracies are discussed and supported - hey ho said roly
