      Gauke's unsettlingly fanatical stance and his U-turn from the opposition days doesn't do much to alleviate suspicions...Sh*t,if I was in the opposition, I would be having him investigated immediately and from all angles!

        U-turn

        Does anyone have documentary proof of Gauke's U-turn?

        I'd love to send a copy to my MP for what it's worth.

          You can surely look up the official transcript on the patient's website or something.

                Gauke justfying the u-turn

                New Clause 1 - Abolition of retrospective application of section 58(4) of the Finance Act 2008: 20 Jun 2013: Public Bill Committees - TheyWorkForYou

                "By tabling his new clause, my hon. Friend the Member for Wycombe seeks to remind me of my interest in the use of retrospective legislation, as indeed does my hon. Friend the Member for Braintree. It is the case that I challenged the introduction of section 58 on the same terms as provided by the wording of the new clause. The challenge I made in 2008 reflected several concerns about the introduction of section 58: first, whether the actions of HMRC had led to the users of the scheme gaining a legitimate expectation that the scheme worked; and, secondly, whether the measure was compatible with EU law. Both those concerns were considered in depth as part of the judicial reviews. I was reassured by the courts’ finding that the users of the scheme had no legitimate expectation in relation to the use of the retrospective legislation, and that the legislation was compatible with the EU freedom of movement of capital. My final concern was about the effect of retrospection on the certainty and stability of the UK tax system."

                  Gauke memorandum to the Parliamentary Human Right Committee

                  Regarding this year's Finance Bill...

                  Note the sneaky inclusion of the word "charging" to avoid having to mention Accelerated Payment.

                  "6. There are no measures in the Bill with unannounced, charging retrospective effect."

                      Surely only a tiny fraction of what you've collectively paid professional bodies would be needed to engage someone to do a thorough investigation on him, private dick stylee?
