HMRC are acting "completely against the concept of the rule of law" in attempting to claw back money from self-employed contractors, top tax barrister tells Nick Ferrari.

Thank you @NickFerrariLBC @LBC for interviewing @keithmgordon on the retrospective taxation of the #LoanCharge and what this means for the #RuleOfLaw amp.lbc.co.uk/radio/presente…

This is the mother of all lies. @Keir_Starmer what else do you need to see to start taking action, as you promised?

Thanks Steve. #loancharge 'debacle' sounds spot on. I just can't stop thinking about the seven grieving families. A catastrophic policy which has caused terrible harm. #LoanChargeScandal

Tax barrister brands HMRC loan charge 'completely against rule of law' @LBC lbc.co.uk/radio/presenters/n…

Internal memo to FST confirms #LoanCharge was deliberately created to bypass tribunals. That confidence of "winning the vast majority of cases" did not exist at all as we now know from Jim Harra himself. Bypassing courts was HMRC's only way of 'winning'.

The link to this morning's programme is here:
globalplayer.com/catchup/lbc…
The loan charge discussion starts at 0.40.55.
To understand why I attempted some Italian at the beginning of my bit, listen from 0.40.20.
@welsby_karyn listen to @keithmgordon on LBC this morning. As always Keith has summed the current situation up perfectly and it's well worth listening on catch-up if you can

Thanks #LoanChargeAPPG member Baroness @SharonBowlesUK for raising the #LoanCharge & the need for control & supervision of @HMRCgovuk who are indeed “heavy -handed on innocent or easy victims”. We need an inquiry into their conduct & a new system of proper oversight & scrutiny.

Government contract worth £220m awarded to 44 day old company with @AEP220676 Anthony Page as a director.
This man has also been selling Tax Avoidance Schemes which HMRC don't work, & @Jesse_Norman has said are not illegal to sell - only illegal to buy them.
Avoid ANTHONY PAGE

On #WorldSuicidePreventionDay Government has choice to make, act to stop more #LoanCharge suicides & announce delay or accept more deaths.
Figures stark @BorisJohnson @RishiSunak - SEVEN confirmed deaths & hundreds desperate calls to LCAG helpline. Time to show true colours...

I think the conduct of the tax profession in the disguised remuneration scandal has been utterly shameful, and I do not subscribe to the idea that this was a few bad apples - it goes to the very top. That is not of course to suggest that everyone was involved.
Simon Burlington retweeted
They must be running out of ways to caught out:
-Lying to Parliament
-Lying to SAM
-Manipulating reviews
-Lying to TSC
-Lying to APPG
-Employing people on schemes themselves
-Ignoring consultations
-Denying Suicides.
I'm sure there's many more.

And it gets more ridiculous. @JimHarraHMRC care to comment at this stage?
