No To Retro Tax - Ongoing battle against S58 FA2008

[MishiMoo]

Yes, we've found a company that can do what is akin to a class action.

We're also meeting our current advisors CCW to see if they can accommodate anything, although this is not their normal bag.

DR, what is the expected timescale for all this? I, and others, are obviously keen to press on, what with APN payment dates looming. Just a rough idea please, if you can. I suppose that NTRT now has to:

- invite people to join up / put their money where their mouth is
- count up the applications
- divide up the expected cost, arrive at a monthly figure...
- get the first monthly payments in!
- instruct the legal bods etc. etc.

What if people don't join up now, but decide to do so later? Will they pay less? Or will there be a cut-off-date to join in? Won't these people benefit anyway, should we win TAA?

Lots of questions forming in my mind as to how this will actually work.....

Especially if Labour and SNP get in.

If that happens a text message should be enough for them to get new retro tax laws passed.

I don't think that the Conservatives have been any better regarding retrospection than Labour were. In fact, the sole retrospective of Labour was S58.

In contract the Conservatives have enacted quite a few measures with retroactive affect including APN's and their treatment of the lifetime limit for pensions which is clearly retroactive.

Yeah, well I hope when he dries his eyes that he thinks about what he and his fellow Hectors put literally 1000s of families through. Suck it up.

It's going to take a bit of time.

Bear in mind though that the folks running NTRT are in the same boat as you and are just as keen to get a move on.

Once the wheels are in motion, people will need to sign up fairly quickly. Now is not a time for dithering.

Maybe Messieurs Class Action & Co. can cover off the fraud angle as an extra.
