I hope you've declared this with HMRC

Nope.

Commuting with a company vehicle which you actually need to do your job, and where the employer has told you it can only be used for commuting outside of those contracted hours of continuous commercial use (and was explicit in requiring notification if other uses were required, uses that would possibly also be permissible depending on their nature), then no tax is payable, not even in this case, where all fuel was paid for on a company credit card.

As with most aspects of a liberal economy designed and implemented by a Tory government, it's set up so that the little guy can get ahead simply through the sweat of his brow and the skills of his hands, with the helping hand of the entrepreneurial types who set up this particular very small business, I am guessing some time in the Thatcher years by the age of the premises, a trading estate built on the site of a former colliery or marshalling yard no doubt.

All very distressing if not completely incomprehensible to unionised Labour voters I am sure.

Regeneration and free enterprise? Eurgh.
