No To Retro Tax - Ongoing battle against S58 FA2008

But if you are struggling to pay then the extra time helps, not much though. Representation is what MP have advised

well obvioulsy - but only if you are 100% sure that the penalties dont get lumped on regardless ...

personally i dont see how when if they suspend it the penaltities still stand - but if you write in any kind of nonsense you might want it would stop the clock.. seems illogical

where is it wirten in black and white that representation stops panalty and surchaged deadlines?

This is the type of post that should be in some sort of summary thread! Luckily I was bored so went back through - but good chance I could have missed it. And I suspect many will miss it...

I bet a certain young sheep didn't miss it.

Roast donkey and mint sauce?

I know something that goes better with mint sauce.

But it's got to be butchered right first and even better if it's hung for 10 days.

Shocking State of Affairs

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.
