1. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson @Keir_Starmer pls understand #LoanCharge & then really think hard about whether abstaining from voting on #NC31 is the right thing to do.
After 7 suicides I don't believe staying silent is the morally correct thing to do, in fact I know it isn't.
2. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips
Please read this thread before deciding whether you want to stand by while other lives are destroyed by #LoanCharge
Please vote for #NC31

3. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips We have been treated appalling by this gov & an out of control @HMRCgovuk . Truths have been twisted. If we cannot turn to the opposition for help then all hope is removed. That is why #NC3 is so important.
4. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips
The so called #LoanCharge 'independent' report was nothing of the sort & did not improve the situation for the majority.

5. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips
There is serious concern that more people will take their own lives should #NC31 not be voted through. Don't have this on you conscience that you could have helped. This is real lives not a political football
6. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips #loancharge

I am sure you are well informed but if you read these threads you will see why voting for #NC31 is so crucial to us.
7. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips #loancharge

Vote for #NC31 give us access to justice.

8. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips #loancharge

Vote for #NC31 don't be misled by @HMRCgovuk
& @hmtreasury
like many MPs have been in the past.
9. @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips

The #loancharge removes the basic right to access to the courts. Be the opposition we need & want & help restore the rule of law in the UK. Vote for #NC31

10. . @AnnelieseDodds @Bill_Esterson
@Keir_Starmer @UKLabour @labourwhips #loancharge

People used these arrangements based on expert advice or were given no choice. @HMRCgovuk know they were legal & didn't act. Pls vote for #NC31

1. A thread 🧵
As a #LoanCharge victim I am confused about the claims being made in respect of promoters of schemes caught by Loan Charge. @keithmgordon I believe you did a thread on this so help me out if you can. OK here we go, please read to the end & retweet for max exposure. Image
2. In 2019 @Jesse_Norman, the FST at the time, when asked why HMRC were not going after Promoters said “unless they’ve done something that is actually illegal it is very hard". Based on this you wouldn't expect promoters to face court or prison #LoanCharge
@Jesse_Norman 3. So you can imagine my surprise when I received a letter from the current FST Victoria Atkins stating that promoters connected to #LoanCharge & DR schemes had received a total of 100yrs custodial sentences. If promoters broke no laws how can this be true?

1. Let's talk about hypocrisy in government, let's concentrate on those privileged individuals who have recently held the position of Chancellor of the Exchequer. Those holier than though millionaire ministers who like to tell us to pay "our fair share". A thread🧵
#LoanCharge
2. Let's start with a previous Chancellor @PhilipHammondUK who seemed to think the tax rate for him while Chancellor was 0.4%. How does that stack up against what struggling families were paying? #LoanCharge
thisismoney.co.uk/money/news/art… via @MailOnline
3. @PhilipHammondUK had a preference to organise his tax affairs to pay the minimum, legal yes but relevant to this thread when you see how he supported #LoanCharge legislation to pursue people, who also acted within the law, to the point of suicide getsurrey.co.uk/news/surrey-ne…

1. @andrealeadsom on 03/11 you said this in @HouseofCommons regarding MPs 'We spend so much of our lives trying to deliver justice to our constituents & fighting against unfairness wherever we see it.'  I challenge that statement in respect of your actions for #LoanChargeScandal
2. I first wrote to you @andrealeadsom in Sept 2017 regarding #LoanChargeScandal & first met you regarding this unjust legislation in Oct 2017. You were unaware of the 20yr retrospective nature of the legislation until I told you. You agreed retrospective law changes were wrong.
3. For 4yrs @andrealeadsom I have asked for your help regarding the #LoanChargeScandal, 4yrs. How long did it take you to draft your amendment for the standards committee & then get the vote passed? Was it a matter of days. You've never spoken out for your constituents like that.

1. OPEN LETTER TO THE LOAN CHARGE APPG @loanchargeAPPG

I feel compelled to write this open letter to the members of the Loan Charge APPG.

Firstly let me thank your members for all their hard work & support to date for those affected by the #LoanCharge
2. @loanchargeAPPG Please excuse any clumsy language or incorrect assumptions, if they do not apply to you, but I am less eloquent than most MPs.

50k to 100k now have less than a week before the #LoanCharge deadline. This is desparate times, many face ruin.
3. To the 76 members of the @loanchargeAPPG who have signed the letter to @RishiSunak asking for a delay to the #LoanCharge deadline I salute you all for your unwavering support. But I must ask where are the signatures from the other 159 members? Where are these MPs when needed.

1. Who'd have thought that amongst all the 1000s of qualified people in Life Sciences in this country that the person chosen to lead the vaccine task force would be the wife of a Tory minister. What are the odds on that happening? @TheCanaryUK herefordtimes.com/news/18457643.…
2. Makes you wonder if they are more interested in giving handouts to their inner circle than finding a vaccine. I am sure that @Jesse_Norman's wife is very competent but it does raise the question as to whether this was to salve the tough ride Norman has faced with #LoanCharge
3. After all the #LoanCharge policy pushed forward by the Tories resulted in @Jesse_Norman being named in a suicide note for 1 of the 7 suicides caused by this retrospective legislation. Surely Jesse deserves something from his Tories buddies for having such a tough time.

1. @andrealeadsom is it normal for a body like @HMRCgovuk to get away with lying to @CommonsTreasury ?
See below. ImageImage
2. @andrealeadsom Mary Aiston (MA): ....HMRC is not going to make people sell their homes to pay their disguised remuneration tax bills.
Chair: Is that a confirmed policy?
MA: Yes
Chair: You are putting that on the record here....
MA: Yes

3. @andrealeadsom Can you ask the current chair of @CommonsTreasury @MelJStride to call Mary Aiston to sit before them again to explain this lie & the many others she told to the committee on 30/09/19 about the #LoanCharge
