I highly doubt they were ignorant to the fact they were dodging tax but I'd imagine they felt pretty safe in doing so if so many famous people are doing it too. The earlier Jimmy Carr scandal probably got them all a bit panicked and it's no surprise this has been uncovered not all that long after that. It won't really affect his career too much and I doubt he'll lose his OBE either. I bet there'll be more instances of celebrities dodging tax revealed over time, it's probably really common among the rich and powerful.

It wasn't posted to him. Someone hacked into his account and tweeted a horrible thing about his stillborn daughter.

Yeah like I just don't get the point in dodging taxes really - we're all taxed because the government needs money to pay for things for all of us. Every single one of us has used or will use public services that the government funds. Some of us will rely on benefits at some point. It's just a bit selfish to not pay whatever you're supposed to be taxed; you're only being taxed that much because you earn enough to justify it. I mean as annoying as it is, you can't miss money that you never had in the first place. Trying to dodge it and have more money is ****ty.
