There have been some concerning developments coming out of the UK, none more alarming than the return of direct recovery powers for HMRC. This change gives the tax authority the legal right to seize funds directly from citizens' bank accounts without prior notice. In today's episode, Mr Henderson explores the growing global trend of aggressive tax grabs by governments, not just in the UK, but in the US and beyond. This isn't simply about higher taxes. It's about governments granting themselves the authority to take your money first and ask questions later. At its core, this is about control, not just collection. And as always, when governments get it wrong, it's you who ends up paying the price.
