aofjays Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 No one posted about hMRC wasting their time and public money again? Wow.... If they win and end up getting a precedent that gets them a metric f**k ton of money it won't be a waste. Here's a wee link for you since you are so upset by it's absence. http://news.stv.tv/west-central/285509-hmrc-confirms-it-will-appeal-oldco-rangers-big-tax-case-ruling/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since Rangers are dead anyway there is no harm in pursuing this all the way. As said we are talking shitloads of back tax for the use of the country, if it fails then the exercise will pinpoint the areas needing addressed in closing said loopholes. Probably cheaper to test in court rather than have more mistakes made examining the legislation. A good use of HMRC resources in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 If they win and end up getting a precedent that gets them a metric f**k ton of money it won't be a waste. Are precedents under Scots law binding in England? I have no idea but the only way this would be useful is if it's true. we need a QC to enlighten us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea but the only way this would be useful is if it's true. we need a QC to enlighten us. The Tax and Chancery Chamber has UK wide jurisdiction in tax cases but I'm not sure how that would relate to having their decision overturned by a Scottish Court. Interesting point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Is tax law not UK wide? And if the law changes under independence or new devo laws? As Kincardine said, wheres that QC when you need him! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonedsailor Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Today really is a learning day, cheers. What I am saying is why speculate on something which is a, unlikely and b, a process which will in all probability take longer than the taxman's appeal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 Is tax law not UK wide? Aye probably but this isn't about law it's about interpretation and about how a Scottish court's interpretation may be received in an English court. Clearly I haven't a scooby but would like to be enlightened. Simple summary: If a judgement against Oldco could lead to a UK-wide precedent then well-in HMRC If a judgement against Oldco doesn't lead to a UK-wide precedent then HMRC are mendacious fuckwits. We need to be better informed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You think that independence is unlikely? (if i've picked you up right) Awa and ..... Tbh i can see HMRC appealing for years and still getting nowhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We need to be better informed. As I posted earlier all of this EBT stuff needs sorted, all parties are on new ground which needs tested. The fact that it is Rangers is neither here nor there and we would probably not care otherwise. If it was your money being fought over you'd fight all the way no doubt. You were shouting loud enough for Rangers to drag the SFA through every court possible over the transfer embargo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
