No To Retro Tax - Ongoing battle against S58 FA2008

[smalldog]

And a yes from me!

do we want hmrc to know how many members are prepared to go forward with this. They will be able to gauge the likely financial support we can muster

Only a section of NTRT members are registered on CUK. The Poll is just a sample.

I'm sure HMRC should be able to work that out.

Given HMRC now know they have no case against us it is appalling that they do not immediately revoke any APNs which have been issued and close this down once and for all.

This should not need to be dragged through the courts - it is a further waste of time and money.

HMRC literature is dripping with comments about treating people fairly - well this is their chance to put that into action - drop this charade immediately and let people get on with their lives.

It is outrageous that people involved with this can still lose everything through bankruptcy despite the fact that senior staff in HMRC now know that there is no case to answer.

As for the ludicrous idea of pursuing us for fraud - more time and effort wasted - of both us and the taxpayer. A grand conspiracy of 3000 IT experts de-frauding HMRC - it's a joke surely.

Certain civil servants need to accept that they have lost and move on - we all know who they are - sitting on their hands for the next year while this drags through the FTT is a dreadful way to behave and ultimately I expect will open them up to official complaints of negligence and bloody-mindlessness towards us.

On another note - I'm not sure why we're being so coy about naming the civil servants who are up to their necks in this fiasco. Let's get their names out there. They are categorically abusing their power and neglecting their duties.

HMRC have never done the right thing as that would have been to bring those test cases they promised years ago then this whole sorry mess never would have happened as HMRC would have LOST! It's not their money they're wasting but ours.
They still carry on sending APNs because it's BAU for them, blind and deaf as they are.

HMRC sent us minutes of the meeting and they don't accurately reflect what was said. I'm sure you can guess the sorts of things that were omitted or toned down.

We will be officially putting it on record that we don't accept the minutes as being a true account.

Is it not possible to record the meetings?

Vote "No" and you won't have a bed to wake up in. HMRC will flog that!
