Watching Ed Davey at the PO enquiry and he eloquently explains why he relied on the advice of officials and advisers. I saw the same happen with the Channel Island mail order VAT scandal. So why are these officials and advisers not in front of the enquiry?

The state had huge control over my life under the last Conservative government by slowly but surely depriving me of the essentials in life - clean water, affordable quality food, affordable heating, accessible health care. All taken from me, reducing my ability to control my life

The lies the Tories told told us have been endemic
“We were prepared”
“There were no parties”
“We did all we could to provide PPE”
Is the first damning Covid Inquiry report why Sunak went to the polls early?
Matt Hancock(23/01/2020): "We are well prepared."
Covid Inquiry finds UK public were failed by government's lack of preparedness.

If a politician says HIS mistakes are due to advisers and officials he should name them, state precisely what he was told that was untrue and when he was told this. One day @MelJStride @Jesse_Norman @lucyfrazermp @HuddlestonNigel will be faking amnesia #LoanChargeScandal inquiry

Also on a somewhat different note what people forget is how many self employed/ contractors have a disability, it is roughly estimated out of the 4.5 million self employed 14% have a disability , being self employed can help them manage treatments , appointments

Banning "exploitative" zero-hours contracts. What percentage of people on zero-hours contracts are claiming they are exploitated?
Where is the data? We need to avoid these ideological-based approaches.
What we need to ensure is that when we protect the vulnerable (the ones who have just about managed to get a paid job) we do not remove the rights of happy people to be their own boss, and who do not want rights.
What about those people? How do we protect the rights of self-employed people to be left alone?

ALT This is an example of a Loan Charge Impact statement taken as evidence by the Loan Charge and Taxpayer Fairness Group AAP. These statements highlight the true impact of the Loan Charge on families and individuals and how that differs from what is reported by HMRC

Dear @RachelReevesMP,
Waiting to hear your focus on #LoanCharge scandal & duff retrospective law-making as 70,000+ people's families are drowning ⬇️
Ditto. There's several #CountyCourt Summons documents included in my 60+ pile of #HMRC #Brownies from £47k to £87k.

I just hope that @jamesmurray_ldn has the guts to force the crooks in HMRC to admit to their deceit and implement a proper independent review.

This could be very good new for #loancharge victims. In 2021, James called for a new independent review into the #LoanChargeScandal. He's now responsible for tax system. Here's my report for @yorkshirepost. #loanchargesuicides

Potentially good news for #loancharge victims and possible closure, James has long been supportive of a fair resolution.

I am glad that former President Trump survived. However America must confront its gun culture. Despite its international posturing, the biggest danger to Americans is and has been for decades their fellow Americans. The US suffers a Vietnam level gun death toll every two years.

Congratulations James, if I have any BBL related concerns I will add you to my list of contacts who have the decency of replying (unlike some of your predecessors from the other side).

Congrats James... We also urgently need a fair resolution to the #LoanChargeScandal before more lives are destroyed.

Congratulations James. I hope to sort out the retrospective #LoanChargeScandal is high on your to do list. Those affected need their lives back.

In 'fair and modern tax system' #LoanChargeScandal would not exist, thousands of victims look forward to Labour bringing in independent review and #FairResolution.
Thank you for your support whilst in opposition, now can really make difference, even save lives. 🙏

Please address the issue of the retrospective #loancharge tax as a priority.
The victims need a fair solution that allows us all to move on with our lives.
caroline cheasty retweeted
A system that provides taxpayer certainty specifically for freelancers, locums, contractors & small business owners should be prioritised, along with ending the nightmare endured by those impacted by the punitive retrospective #loancharge
We have faith that you can deliver this

It is a huge honour to be appointed as Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury.
We need a fair and modern tax system to support public services and help drive economic growth.
A real privilege to get to work this week on making that change happen.
