"Plainly I am not independent"
(Ray McCann 2019) - quite the admission from 'independent' reviewer into #LoanChargeScandal#McCannReview on eve of publication of his review (into settlement terms).
Thank you to @angusmacdlibdem
for written question.

The Treasury is having private discussions about the #McCannReview recommendations, on top of the significant restrictions on it.
We’ve written to Ray McCann urging him to disown the whole review if he’s not allowed to resolve the #LoanChargeScandal.

Gordon. Why not STFU. What are you trying to achieve? All you are doing is pi**ing people off with your very unhelpful posts. We don’t want to hear you playground “Told you so”digs. Grow up and get back in your box.
Given historic accusations of HMT/HMRC interfering with the last #LoanCharge review, this FOI will be worth keeping an eye on. @Stephen41792571 https://t.co/I4QiVhtDMz
Following the extraordinary FOI revelation of #HMRC’s settlement deal of 15% with large companies & @gregsmith_uk’s question, we’ve written to the Chancellor @RachelReevesMP. Those she agrees are victims of mis-selling MUST be given equal terms as multi-million pound companies.
🚨BREAKING NEWS: Huge new FOI revelation in the #LoanChargeScandal raised by @gregsmith_uk in #TreasuryQuestions exposing #HMRC’s 15% settlement deal with large companies in 2015, as reported by Ray McCann to Lord Morse in 2019. All the while ruthlessly persecuting contractors.
🚨The latest revelation in the #LoanChargeScandal is coming out tomorrow.
It exposes the disgrace of #HMRC’s whole approach & that the current highly restricted non-independent review (only of settlement terms - how to “encourage people to pay”) is a wholly unnecessary nonsense.
A Sky News investigation has revealed how, over two decades, some of Britain's biggest recruitment companies were linked to large-scale tax avoidance when placing workers into jobs, including government roles in Whitehall.

This evening I will be talking to @gregsmith_uk, chair of the #loancharge APPG about the so-called "review" of the Loan Charge, announced by HM Treasury today. Except it is nothing of the sort and it's not independent.
Very disappointed in @jamesmurray_ldn for being hoodwinked.
BREAKING: The Government has launched a new independent review into the #loancharge. Ray McCann, will lead the review. Full report and my interview with Exchequer Secretary to the Treasury, James Murray here:

A massive thank you to @RachelReevesMP & @jamesmurray_ldn for announcing an independent review into the Loan Charge. It's the right thing to do and I'm delighted on behalf of all my listeners who have rung my show to detail the iniquities of the charge.

The Chancellor has announced that the Government will commission an independent review into the #LoanCharge.
This is very positive news & something the APPG has been consistently calling for.
The review must be genuinely independent & must look at the whole #LoanChargeScandal.
Scandal as technicality threatens derail four YEARS of ONE MAN fighting HMT's desperate attempts to resist releasing draft Loan Charge Review!!
WHAT @hmtreasury hiding? Time media investigated real David & Goliath, #MrBatesVsThePostOffice style story.
