Have I just seen the worst ad ever? Folk duo (should I recognise them?) singing a jolly song about cremations. In the very silly knitting programme obvs. #GameofWool

This article on the latest farcical #LoanCharge non-review of core issues tells it like it is. There comes a point where - between two sides, it is embarrassingly clear who is doing the lying and stonewalling. A sham review is good for nothing except more cognitive dissonance.

That was disgusting, I am so very sorry you were treated this way.
No. I am not in a wheelchair but I wear glasses. At an event once, an entertainer came up (I was seated), tore my glasses off & waved them around in 'fun'. My glasses are what I need to see, taking them is like taking my eyes. I was furious, and it looks like that lady was, too.

1/ 🚨 #HMRC and the Loan Charge have destroyed my life. Here's my story of how retrotax left me bankrupt, tore my family apart, and ruined my mental health. This MUST stop! #LoanChargeScandal #TaxJustice 🧵

Liverpool Care Pathway I believe. Needs investigating. It is not dying with dignity.
Why do families agree to allowing their loved ones to be deprived of water in their final days? It’s so cruel. If victims were given fluids, they would stay alive longer. NOT what the medics want. Question to doctors and nurses: do you know that deliberately dehydrating a patient will kill them and, if so, why do you do it?

Yes they do. Bad enough that they pick up the employers' NI at all. No sick pay, no holiday pay, no redundancy, no employment rights, taxed like a staff member without any of the benefits and employers' NI on top. It's a disgrace.

The Loan Charge debacle involves Michelle Mone's husband...well there's a thing Labour has ordered the #LoanChargeReview... It's another scandal ignored by previous govts Good luck to all those fighting for justice
The #LoanChargeReview announced by the Government must be a properly established & structured review/inquiry & genuinely independent, unlike the #MorseReview which was neither. Here’s a reminder of some of the FOI responses that revealed the reality. loanchargeappg.co.uk/wp-cont…
