    HMRC 'plans to share tax data with private firms'

    Taxpayers' personal data could be shared with private firms under plans drawn up by Revenue & Customs (HMRC).



    If given the go-ahead it would allow HMRC to release anonymous tax data to third parties including companies, researchers and public bodies.

    "Former Conservative minister David Davis told the Guardian the plans were "borderline insane"

    The plans are not borderline insane, they are so far over the border that they're out of sight. The fact this is even being discussed at all is very frightening, the abuse of this data would be inevitable.

    The consumer is that sleeping giant.!!
