As Jim agrees he should be annoyed...
Maybe it was from the debate in the commons 9 days earlier?

#LoanChargeScandal
Was it the excellent questioning from MPs across the house pointing out that the #LoanCharge is retrospective and that the #LoanChargeReview should've been from a Tax Judge not from their man on the inside...
Maybe it was the #LoanChargeSuicides - the promoters, that name that still keeps giving. Very hard to take a position against an old friend.
Maybe it was the unprecedented actions #HMRC are taking against taxpayers?
#LoanCharge

#LoanCharge #LoanChargeDebacle

Taxpayers taking professional advice, declaration of arrangements to #HMRC - who did nothing, except make this into the #LoanChargeDebacle !!
