Revenue is trawling through "third party details" like stamp duty records, electricity bills, rental details and records from the controversial €100 household charge to figure out the size and value of every home.

If I were to guess I would say your the kind of person that stood outside the gas chambers in the early 40s in Germany pushing in citizens to there deaths as you are simply following orders/laws. Or maybe a traitor/informant to the british during the Irish war of independance (British will say this is beyond moral obligations and somewhat patriotic to HM) Moral duty to comply with laws you say? Is it not our moral duty not to comply with an unjust law?? If only you had an ounce of common sense their maybe some hope for you, there is no point in me repeating the reasons why this new tax is completely wrong as they have been stated over and over again. I am sure I speak for over half of the population when I say people like you should be completely ashamed of yourselves!! PS: Do you honestly think I give an absolute care in the world if revenue fine me for not paying?? They can fine me 10,000 an hr until I pay I could not care less, I will not be bullied into complying for a morally wrong, unjust and unfair tax, if we allow them away with this... what is next a path tax for pedestrians?? The yes side are not looking at the full picture this is your biggest flaw!

I simply pointed out the hypocrisy of this, and if someone wants to discuss changing ones morals I feel it only appropriate to point them in your direction as you have some first hand experience of this.
