Originally posted by Taffia View PostJust got a letter from my MP, along with a 6 page letter from Gauke concluding that 'those seeking to avoid tax through aggressive schemes such as this must accept the risk that the scheme they have chosen does not work, and be prepared for the consequences'.
Gauke's letter also states that 'Representatives of this lobby group have made a number of misleading assertions in briefings sent to their members for use in writing to their MP'.
This is in response to a letter my MP sent him the day after the January briefing.
Anyone got something similar?
In the process of setting up a meeting with my MP anyway, so quite timely really.Comment

I assume these misleading assertions weren't described in detail by gauge? I.e. what exactly is incorrect, Grrrrr!
Trying smoke and mirrors it appears. I guess he hopes it will generally be believed without having to explain what exactly is misleading.

Maybe it's dressed up in more authoritative language, but it amounts to the same thing.Comment

MP's Support
I have heard today that my MP is happy to sign a cross-party letter to the Chancellor, demanding the removal of the retrospective element of section 58. It is heartening that some MPs are principled in their representation of their constituents. I know who I'll be voting for next time.
Here's hoping there are a good many other like-minded MPs out there too.Comment
