It's the C in HMRC that gifted them power.

Indeed, it was said that Customs & Excise (as was) had more power than God (no warrants needed). And to whoever it was who blamed the Tories, this happened in 2004/5, under our old friends Bliar and Bruin. But of course you knew that already...

Thanks to the Tories, HMRC can re-write laws change rules and apply them retrospectively, but to some people you're not allowed to say anything bad about our benevolent dictators.

I thought it was Labour that introduced retrospection in 2008? Tories opposed it in opposition then supported it.

I suppose they do whatever HMRC tell them....

And who is the connection between Newcastle and West Ham?

Hector. HMRC shorted both clubs and then raided.

And who is the connection between Newcastle and West Ham?

Alan Pardew ?

[WTFH]

Sam Allardyce?

The only other one I can think of is Glenn Roeder. But I don't see the relevance of the Q. Managers aren't responsible for paying HMRC, it's the clubs' financial departments.

Karen Brady?

No, she's ex Birmingham City, as are the owners, Sullivan & Gold.
