How very odd. So they dont mention what happens to those who did not put money aside but they say no-one will be made bankrupt... ahh so they are not saying no one will be made bankrupt but they are saying it wont be as a consequence of s58, it is because they didnt save ?? Another crappy attempt at a swerve...

It would be as a direct consequence of S58 ! Something legal, made illegal

'........ but HMRC is aware of approximately 210 people who have accepted that their version of the scheme did not work and have settled with HMRC.'

I take it this is the Suo Moto Mob ?

Suo Motu was 148. We don't know who the other 60-odd are.

Interesting phrasing: 'their version'. Implies that they accept that the schemes were not in fact identical as they have previously tried to pass off. I wonder where this leaves the poor guy who they did make bankrupt.

Actually, re-reading that, I think there's a more sinister spin. I think what they are saying is that it isn't S58 that has bankrupted us, it's Padmore. S58 just clarified that we would be bankrupted.

How many of the 60 do you think were 'terrorised' into paying by the unscrupulous demands HMRC sent out, those no knowing that they were not alone in the fight against tyranny.

I thought there were a few who decided to settle? I wish I knew why they did.

Is it possible that they had an attack of conscience?
