I live in what has been a very safe seat for the Tories for, well ever.
I've not had a single door knocker.
I've only had one leaflet, from the Labour candidate (a Barrister and ex-pro rugby player apparently).
Nothing from the Lib Dems, even though they have been the closest challenger in the last few elections.
Nothing from the Greens, even though they have been challengers in local elections. -

HMRC again. Sorry for the rant.
I've now been sent a letter from a Debt Collection Centre about an outstanding balance.
I received a letter from HMRC a couple of months back about it saying its in regards to self assessment. It said I could check the details and pay the amount via the app. The apps says I don't anything. So there is no means to pay. I try to call numerous times, but there is no answer and system just cuts you off, there is no queue.So I sent them a message via the app. There has been no response to my message.
So I call the debt agency and they are able to give me a different number to call, which I am able to get through on. They do some digging and apparently its not about self assessment, but rather a difference in the company car I had and the one they thought I had in 2018-19. Which is the first time I have heard about this. They said they sent a letter in 2021, but I never received it.
Fucking annoying as;
1) I always updated my HMRC account when I changed car as I know my employer were rubbish at doing it.
2) Like i said, this is the first i had heard about it, 5 years later.
3) I have spoken to HMRC in 2019 about another dispute (when they said I got paid twice in July and twice in December 2018, even though my payslips and bank account said otherwise. They wouldn't back down and I had to pay it. I spoke to them again in 2021 as we also had a dispute when I got a redundancy payment. At no point did they say I owed any other amounts. They have records of these calls.
4) They make it impossible to contact them and then don't respond when you actually manage to
5) The info in their app and their system for letting you pay any amount doesn't show you owing anything. So I couldn't it any way.
6) Was told on the phone, the only way to dispute the claim, even though I was on the phone to the HMRC at the time, that they have an app and an online account is to write them a sodding letter and put it in the post. -

I've had this for a few years, but didn't know this thread existed. Bought the bike second hand ages ago with a mix of Xenon and Centaur bits.
Campag Chorus 12 on a Arthur Caygill Columbus SL frameset. Still got the Campag Mexico '68 rims that it came with, but want to change them to something else.

No, the Times have been going full attack dog on Labour for weeks now! Pretty much every front page headline is a made up lie about what Labour might do if they get elected. None of it based on what is in the manifesto or even discussed by any of the leadership team. Its proper conspiracy theory stuff.

We now have the opposite issue, everything is coming down the left and nothing down the right. 😀
