No To Retro Tax - Ongoing battle against S58 FA2008

[DonkeyRhubarb]

DR, could you please direct me to the exact thread for such matters. Like to progress that in parallel. Cheers, TGE

There was a thread created for the EBT scheme but there hasn't been any activity.

EBTs have already got a perfectly good defence, namely that they were loans not taxable income.

Thank you, just checking.

There is no conflict between what we're doing and what MP are doing on the APN front.

Thanks DR. The thread fills up quickly and it is difficult to ID the important posts amongst the many.

I have added a poll to the thread to gauge the mood.

Obviously, it goes without saying, I have voted Yes.

Done - a big fat yes from me!!

A yes from me (when I get on a web browser and can see the poll!)

I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece

Don't bother asking. PM admin and he might tell you which of the trolls it was. Though he will probably not be bothered. They might have voted for the AndyW option if you had followed CUK rules!

The post rate here is now getting ridiculous. Several very important posts inter spaced with interesting stuff but not going to affect the outcome. I bet most have missed the important posts.

Maybe you need a S58 section in CUK? Or at least a S58 important notices thread where only DR can post? I have suggested DR for moderator which might help lighten the load - though admin seems unimpressed.

Several people are getting quite upset - not surprisingly really. I am not sure threatening the ban hammer should be the only way forward here. People do need to be advised to seek medical help.

Not sure why I am posting this as I will pop back tomorrow and find another 10 pages of stuff to wade through. I had to leave the NTRT steering committee due to coming home and finding 80 emails to go through. Looks like I am going to be driven from CUK as well. Which might well be for the best.

BP,

That's what the monthly newsletters are for. They contain all the important information.

Anyone not wishing to follow the forum, just read the newsletters.

Regards
DR

DR you obv missed this from your earlier post

I am an - and have been - an NTRT member for many years and am affected by the same stress as everyone else here.

I won't be able to use the TAA argument as it might affect my future position and hence have voted 'No'.

For those fellows who are able to use this angle I do wish you the very best of luck! My gratitude and admiration goes to the NTRT team and the forum members fighting this injustice for such a long time. You have got the hearts of lions. I hope you will succeed and will keep fingers crossed for each and ever one of you.

DR you were asking about this ealier
