BN66 - Round 2 (Court of Appeal)

[weeboaby]

The last 2 weekends running I have received demands. I suppose the opportunity to spoil a Bank Holiday weekend was too good to miss. Is anyone else being hit in this way? I feel harrassed and very stressed.

So if we win, can HMRC appeal? if we lose what is the next stage?

Has anyone had a response from their MP yet. I don't want to know the content (the walls have ears) but just interested as mine has not responded.

So Ingram lied / failed to recollect / was economical with the truth. I wonder how long until the other ministers (Timms!) come clean.

I think that when MPs mislead parliament (or civil servants if they're the ones responsible) then it should be treated as a criminal offence and dealt with harshly.

A second interesting feature of this story is that the QC on the side of the complainant is none other than our old friend/adversary Rabinder Singh..

I think Jane Kennedy's words at the Treasury Committee when BN66 was voted on would fall under the caption of "failed to recollect". If the complainant in this case wins perhaps our legal team could use it as a precedent. It would be great value to see Singh try and undermine one of his own cases!

Either side could appeal to the Supreme Court. Ultimately, it will probably end up in the European courts.

got my reply a few days ago, as you say walls have ears, but I can say it was positive.

nothing as yet from my MP, sent him a chase yesterday

[SLB]

(and I hope their FOI Team are reading this)

is that they utterly resent what I'm doing. "Hate" is probably not too strong a word for their feelings towards me. I think they assume I'm just playing games and being deliberately bloody minded.

Well I'm not. I've had people confide in me that they have contemplated ending their life, so this is deadly serious.

My only goal with the FOI requests etc. is to try and get at the truth. Because of their underhand evasive tactics and total lack of candour, they have forced me to become a pain in the arse.

Based on everything I've learned over the past 2 years, this is what I believe to be true:



Now, if HMRC really wanted to shut me up why don't they waive their rights and prove that this was not the real motive behind s.58?

Until they come clean, they are not going to get me off their backs.

PS.

What I'm planning to do next is going to seriously piss them off but I make no apologies for this because they've brought it on themselves. This is just a job to them, and I'm looking out for people whose lives will be ruined.

Go to it DR!! Make life as difficult as possible for them! Lying bunch of sh1ts!
