>He was claiming HMRC was trying to get BT to charge income tax for a benefit of tea and coffee. //

The page I linked says that it's not normally the case. But it's clear in the guidance that a not unusual construction of such a scheme, eg using vouchers and an external provider, would make it that tax/NICs were due on the hot-drinks a a benefit-in-kind.

It's not provably misinformation but it is deficient and doesn't demonstrate the verity of the claim.
