Treasury officials have allegedly used an obscure area of inheritance tax law that slaps large levies on gifts to justify the bills.
Donations made to political parties, charities and other bodies are usually deemed exempt from the rules, but HMRC has ruled that payments from individuals to referendum campaigns are taxable.
At least one Remain donor has also been sent a letter, but major global banks which backed the campaign to stay in the EU have not been hit with bills.
Sounds like CUK posters. Whining over the tax bills of others and how unfair it all is.
