I'm caught in what I, and many others, consider to be the biggest legal scandal in UK history called the HMRC Loan Charge. I've received threatening letters demanding that I pay a huge unpayable bill.. #LoanChargeScandal #LoanChargeSuicides @LCAG_2019 @loanchargeAPPG

Latest example of @HMRCgovuk bullying of people facing the #LoanCharge: We’ve had multiple reports of #HMRC phoning people demanding they call back by 5pm to arrange a time-to-pay or enforcement action will begin. This is misconduct & people should complain.

The #LoanCharge has been a profound failure. As well as 11 suicides it has cost £186 million since it came into force in 2019. In that time HMRC only achieved 800 settlements with individuals totalling £44m. We’ve written to @CommonsPAC urging an inquiry. loanchargeappg.co.uk/wp-cont…

Suggest you do some reading up on the #LoanChargeScandal where HMRC introduced a retrospective tax to transfer a tax liability to honest people. The Gov admits 11 suicides.

HMRC are dangerously out of control. #LoanChargeScandal victims have been saying it for 10+ years.

IMPORTANT 70,000+ people suffering from the #LoanChargeScandal - discussed in Parliament today 10+ SUICIDES People who were told they were doing the right thing by promoters, who took HUNDREDS of £million fees. Including Doug Barrowman, Michelle Mone's husband Little people hounded. Promoters and profiteers ignored. Reminiscent of Post Office Scandal @LCAG_2019
New video shows HMRC's #LoanCharge failures. - Warn users? ❌ - Collect tax from employers? ❌ - Act against promoters? ❌ - Interfered Review ❌ - Misled MP's ❌ - 10 #LoanChargeSuicides ❌ Time action against promoters & investigation into HMRC. youtu.be/SDwRI_hsOa4

Read this twice "There are [have been] NO convictions of loan scheme promoters". I.E. the organisations who are known to have made billions by mis-selling payroll schemes to real workers, while HMRC watched silently until many years later trying to ruin those same workers
Finally we have some honesty from @hmtreasury. There are NO convictions of loan scheme promoters. So the reality is that @HMRCgovuk are simply going after individuals & demanding unpayable sums with no appeal leading to bankruptcies, breakdowns & suicides. #LoanChargeScandal

The scandal of the #LoanChargeScandal - not one promoter has been punished, meanwhile ordinary people’s lives are in tatters.

Loan Charge victims tried to warn the general public about HMRC overreach and using retrospective legislation (with no right of appeal) to hide their blushes, now they're coming for your bank accounts. What will it take for the citizens to tell them to GTF?! #loanchargescandal
🚨 BREAKING: John Healey will announce at the Budget that HMRC will be given powers to seize money directly from the bank accounts of people who fail to pay their tax

41 referrals.11 suicides.00's acts of serious self harm. And we're STILL letting HMRC mark their own homework? How many referrals,suicides or acts of self harm are too many before someone gives the matter serious consideration? #loanchargesuicides #loanchargescandal #loancharge
HMRC has made 41 referrals to the police watchdog involving Loan Charge cases of serious injury or loss of life. It investigated every one internally. It found no misconduct, every time.

Maybe something could be implemented retrospectively 🤔 and one day all those who’ve suffered will get justice and those responsible for the suicides of the #loancharge victims will be held accountable.
Please support this important initiative. The changes being lobbied for include holding civil servants to account for their decisions. The #loancharges would not have happened if this had been enacted in law. Those responsible would have feared prosecution. @loanchargeAPPG

Surely targeting the individuals years even after @UKSupremeCourt stated it was the Employers to pay is “too good to be true” and they should know that it will never work. #LoanChargeKills

Thank you. In terms of the internal "Loan Charge Review" paper it is claimed that so far 85% of "loan charge" claims have successfully been recouped from Employers. Given the inaccuracy around promoters, can we ask that @HMRCgovuk provide backing data to validate the 85% claim?

The next question think we would all like answered did HMRC even investigate any of the Loan Scheme providers like AML if so what was the outcome? & if not why where they not investigated ? @paullewismoney @IainDale @ftmoney @ClaerB @EmmaAgyemang @damienmooremp @wallaceme

Finally you admit that those affected by the #LoanChargeScandal are victims! You’re 2 years too late for our family, for our Late father 😞. But you can still make it right for all those still facing the #LoanCharge. Now you must help the victims. #SaveLives

Excellent meeting of the Loan Charge and Tax Payer Fairness APPG covering HMRCs behaviour in relation to not only the Loan Charge but also pensions fraud, mistaken ID and VAT fraud. Everyone felt it was a useful and productive meeting with a number of MPs present. More to come..

Yet #LoanChargeScandal victims get told to settle unaffordable amounts or else #HMRC will pursue you to death.
