Nigel Farage wants to abolish the US Internal Revenue Service. Has he got it in for H M Revenue & Customs too?

Posted on

I don't often feature the UKIP website here. In fact, I've never done so before. But this caught my eye from 2 April:

Two of the world's leading libertarian politicians, UKIP Leader Nigel Farage and the man described as "the Intellectual Godfather" of the Tea Party movement, Ron Paul, found plenty to talk about when they met at the Sovereign Man conference in Chile over Easter.

Held in the South American nation's capital, Santiago, the annual conference featured a host of heavyweight speakers including Mr Paul, Nigel and legendary American investor Jim Rogers.

Speaking after the conference, Nigel said: "It was a major event and there was a fantastic audience there to hear the world-ranked speakers.

"I spoke on the threat posed by the breakdown of the eurozone to the world economy, Jim Rogers gave his take on the complete breakdown of global macroenomic policies while Ron Paul took on the American Internal Revenue Service, calling for its abolition. It was seriously good stuff."

The claim of the web site was that "common ground" was established.

Does that mean UKIP is calling for the abolition of H M Revenue & Customs?
