    Insella are not relying upon a judge interpretation of the law, they are utilising the law that Hmrc themselves helped word. It’s an option and people can take or leave.

    There won’t be any hard sell from Phil either way other than to state it’s not a qc opinion on a scheme...it’s a qc devised solution.

    There’s a world of difference and for anyone to downplay it based on a seeing only a few paragraphs of a >200 page explanation is crazy. Especially so if such person/people have their own agenda to sell.

    I guess it’s a case of trusting Phil and rvqc or not but neither can make a penny of failed and (Phil especially) has everything to lose.
    I can't see HMRC letting someone else cash in on 'their' tax. Only takes another law to be invented tomorrow.

      For what it’s worth Robert Venables QC designed the failed scheme I was on....

        A very long time ago, there was a group called NTRT. Very similar to LCAG.

        At one point some of those in NTRT put in a great deal of money to form a splinter group. This was highly controversial and attracted a great deal of criticism.

        Who do you think did best between: -
        1. Those outside the splinter group
        2. Those inside the splinter group.
        3. AndyW

        Please vote for option 1, 2 or 3.

                I am just about to request a one month ban. I want to be very clear I am not running away from defending Phil and will be back.

                My brother has just been found hanged. He served his country as a member of 1para and possibly the SAS.

                I have hugely suffered at the hands of HMRC - without Phil I could have gone the same way as my brother.

                      Thanks for your support and please note what Webberg correctly states - there are things more such more important than tax - indeed pretty much everything is more important than all this nonsense. Take care pal and call if required.
