    "HMRC's action was in contravention of its statutory duty to collect taxes properly, fairly and equally"

    ... Surely not! Reckon there may be a few more cases out there...

      'Equally' does that mean that I should be treated the same as Google and Starbucks how have not had any laws changed under them?

        Im actually quite surprised the letter to George didnt make any mention of comparisons between our treatment and the like of the corporates and people on things like the K2 scheme, any retro tax for them? I doubt it!

              Do we expect that Osborne will take the letter seriously, or just dismiss it as Gauke has done over the months?

                I suspect he will give it great consideration until the Finance Bill recieves Royal ascent and then replies explaining he would have loved to help but now it is too late, sorry....

                  Well, if he doesn't he can look forward to questions when he's next campaigning for re-election like 'Can you explain why you support retrospective taxation to bankrupt small UK businesses but are indifferent to aggressive tax avoidance by large multinationals?'

                    Self Employed Class 2 NICs

                    Just wander if someone can advise me about this, this is what we used to pay during the MTM scheme as self employed.

                    I left the UK 8 years ago but I still get these requests and I have continued to pay these as I wanted to ensure I kept my state pension benefits, however I am now begining to question this as I am obviously not self employed in the UK anymore,.

                    Hence, if I keep paying will I still be entitled to my state pension? if I stop paying should I try and claim these back for the last 8 years?

                      Oh, I see that you mean Self Employed Class 2 NICs ( the title doesn't show up on Tapatalk).
