MP Greg Mulholland. EBT mis-selling

My view is this and it is QC Approved
After the decision in Huitson and thereafter in allied cases and appeals it became clear that retrospective legislative action was likely to make it through the courts no matter how sound the "planning" or "structure".
A number of devisors exited at that point as they knew this.
Promoters continued regardless often by offering the self employed benefit trusts thereby offering something that was likely to be attacked restrospectively. In my view that's mis-selling.
It is a bandwagon that needs to roll and there is an opportunity for any politician to get behind it and raise their profile perhaps.Comment

Agreed - I have written to my MP who has replied and has taken this wholly unreasonable litigation up with the Chief Secretary to the treasury. Suggest all those that can do the same to increase the volume.Comment
