| Apologies, forgot to post the link. https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/fraud-and-error-in-the-benefit-system-financial-year-2024-to-2025-estimates/fraud-and-error-in-the-benefit-system-financial-year-ending-fye-2025 Bottom line - benefits fraud £6.5 billion FYE 2025 - massive, absolutely. But it's less than 15% of the tax gap. https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/measuring-tax-gaps/1-tax-gaps-summary Of course, not all of the tax gap is down to fraud, but a substatntial amount is. |
