and my big issue with all of this is that when/if HMRC get the cash from the follower notice, what is their incentive to prove its not actually their entitlement? Cant see them chasing cases through the courts to conclusion!
'Had we never had the Glorious Revolution of 1688 which firmly established that the
Administration is not a law onto itself but that its actions can always be called into
account in the Courts, had we not defeated the absolutist Napoleon Bonaparte, had Hitler
won the Second World War and we were now a fascist society and if we did not have a
Human Rights Act, HMRC’s proposals would, perhaps, make some sense. As it is, they
are utterly repugnant to the values of the people of the United Kingdom society in 2014.
That these proposals could now even be mooted, shows that there is something very
rotten in the state of HMRC.'
I forwarded my concerns to my local MP regarding the Consultative Document and he has responded that he was already aware and also attached HMRC's response to his letter to them. If anyone would like a copy pm me your email address and I can email out..
It would be good to get peoples thoughts on HMRC's response..
