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.

4. Yes, you've written letters regarding #LoanChargeScandal to @HMRCgovuk & @hmtreasury but never expressing your feelings against the unjust nature of this retrospective legislation. Always the minimum to keep us quiet."Fighting against unfairness wherever we see it" I think not

5. @andrealeadsom You promised me & fellow constituents a face to face meeting with Mel Stride to discuss #LoanChargeScandal. At the time he was a junior minister & you were Leader of the House. He refused the meeting, you didn't push or fight our corner to get us in front of him

6. @andrealeadsom when we asked you to sign the #LoanChargeScandal EDM started by @StephenLloydEBN you said you had a policy of not signing EDM's, when we asked for you to join the @loanchargeAPPG you said you do not generally join APPGs. How exactly are you fighting injustice?

7. I asked you @andrealeadsom to sign the recent open letter about the #LoanChargeScandal, you don't believe open letters help to improve sympathy to a cause. Over 140 other MPs have signed this open letter, way more than the 59 to peak your concern about the standards committee.

8. @andrealeadsom you said in the House 'It is so sad that it takes a tragedy for the House to act.'
You are aware that there have been 7 #LoanChargeScandal suicides. You spoke to the daughter of a victim. Disgraceful that you & the House haven't acted.

9. @andrealeadsom where does the #LoanChargeScandal "reflect the laws of natural justice. Where the accused can expect to have their own evidence taken into account and vitally to access an independent appeal process."?
The Loan Charge strips this away. Let's see you fight that.

10. @andrealeadsom you have dodged or refused to meet any officers from @LCAG_2019 or the tax barrister @keithmgordon with me & other constituents. Are you scared of the truth about the #LoanChargeScandal? It is built on lies, recent FOI requests attest to that.

11. As a constituent & victim of the #LoanChargeScandal I want you to show this fight against injustice that you talk about or is that just reserved for MPs? I want you to act as quickly as you did for your amendment to the standards committee & speak up in Parliament.

12. Speeches about your amendment @andrealeadsom raised some pertinent points about retrospective legislation & @RhonddaBryant said "Retrospective legislation to favour or damage an individual .... is immoral & the polar opposite of the rule of law".#LoanCharge is retrospective.

13. @Jacob_Rees_Mogg said today when talking about your amendment @andrealeadsom that it would be wrong to be applied retrospectively. Retrospective law changes are wrong & unjust. The #LoanCharge is wrong & unjust. Are there different rules for MPs?

14. If you want to discuss #LoanChargeScandal further and hear the truth meet with @keithmgordon, his offer to meet still stands. It is time you & the whole of @HouseofCommons woke up to the truth about this unjust legislation, or is it really preferential rules for MPs?
