BN66/S58 update

[AtW]

you missed the Cretin bit.

You were smart enough not to get into that tulip

The BN66 crew and the muppets who support them like Dh00g and NotAllThere and Cojak etc keep arguing that this sets a precedent which means the govt will keep changing laws retrospectively, which is simply bollox

I never said I support BN66ers. I know you love putting words in peoples' mouths but this is untrue - I merely support retrospective legislation even less, especially after such periods of time.

HMRC are not waiting watching real time data and wanting to chase criminals who committed a crime in real time. They have limited resources and will come after you when they can.

What rot. If it's such a big deal they could have easily prioritised it. They do have computers in HMRC and it would hardly be difficult to guess who to look at.

The courts said it was legal for Govt to use this particular element of retrospection.

So the law has spoken - what the Govt did was legal.

Some could argue that it was immoral for Govt to do it, but it's legal.

Why should the Govt cave in after it won the legal challenge?

So if the lobbyers get their way, reversing the decision will also be legal and you'll have nothing to complain about.

Timely response is a reasonable expectation from the above.

Is that what the QC opinion said?

I will have no complaint about the legality of repealing the legislation. However, I would view the repeal as bad legislation

Maybe legal, definately immoral - just like the act of paying 3.5% income tax.

Actually the 3.5% isn't legal. Didn't you hear about the change in law?

Yes, it's entirely legal to pay 3.5% income tax in UK but only if you get just over your allowance

Nope you love the BN66 crew to the point where it is now very cringy. For someone who believes in God and pays his fair share of tax I wonder why you adopt such an aggressive stance of supporting them I wonder. I wont be surprised if there are skeletons in your cupboard.

So you think he is a necromancer?!??!

As long as he pays his taxes it's fine by me
