UK Politics is no longer about the improving the UK; it is about the party looking after the party.
This is everything that is wrong with UK Politics.

I have just seen another FOIA disclosure. Not read it in full but spotted some guidance on how to make a review into the loan charge look independent but with minimum risk.
Mostly conducted in-house with an independent figurehead lead reviewer.
Please support NC7 - to enable an independent review of the @loancharge give the FOI revalations. Example: HMRC unable to provide the legal basis or saying the law was known, when evidence says not.

Labour are requesting a truly independent review of @loancharge (NC 7)
Will the Tories allow it?

There has never been anything like the #LoanCharge in the history of taxation in the UK.
Before and since the #LoanCharge HMRC (like the former IR) routinely wrote off and write off billions of pounds of tax when they fail to challenge tax schemes on time b/c of incompetence etc
@Brexit @UKConservative @HouseofCommons @UKLabour
Many thanks for the Brexit Xmas present of additional charges (tariffs) - coupled with retrospective taxation.
@loancharge
Please lead!
If you’re buying Christmas presents from the EU, check whether your order is worth more than £135, before extra costs such as shipping and insurance are applied. If it is, you should check the rules to see if you need to pay import VAT and customs duty 🎁 gov.uk/goods-sent-from-abroa…

It isnt a conflict of interest if the retrospective loancharge is recognised as incorrect; recognising that the schemes were legal at the time - therefore no tax due.
@lucyfrazermp What's the diff between you & Michael Vaughan? He's lost a job due to a conflict of interest #LoanCharge victims wont & haven't had their "Fair Settlements" addressed because Just Like The Tax Club you have a conflict of Interest !! theguardian.com/politics/202…

Sad how scheme owners & Tory's profit off HMRC u-turn that has no legal basis - mis-sold suffer (Families, NHS etc)
@AndrewMarr9 @USTradeRep @brexit @covid
Take a look at all the dodgy links into @Conservatives
It provides an incite into @loancharge not catching any scheme owners.
Our @UKParliament should be proud. Will @UKLabour speak up and contest?
This is the govt that wants to lead by example: @GOP26 and @wto @UN.

Great to see @Keir_Starmer holding the Prime Minister to account over the sleaze & corruption that dominates his Government.
Keir rightly pointed out that the Prime Minister has been investigated by every organisation he's ever been a member of. #PMQs
