An anonymised version of the First Tier Tribunal verdict was published by the Finance and Trbunals service today. The 145 page document will take some reading but it concluded:
“the trust payments are to be construed as ‘emoluments’ for the purposes of the tax legislation”
For those without a dictionary to hand,… Emoluments: Synonyms earnings, pay, recompense.
I for one am absolutely shocked that Sir David’s confidence was misplaced on this matter.
Enjoy the game!
“having ascertained the real nature of the transaction, you cannot … disguise it by using camouflaged clothing”
Sham
‘it is wrong and an unnecessary self-limitation’ not to give regard to ‘the manifested intentions of the parties’ in the face of documents or transactions that are not ‘shams’

There’s a lot of conjecture that it was ole Duane Allman that did most of the intricate fancy plucking *careful how you read that to yourself* on the album Layla.

The evidence givers have coded names. Wonder who this is
27. Next, Mr Violet gave evidence. Firstly, he confirmed the terms of his Witness Statement. He was a former Rangers manager. The Trust had been mentioned as offering benefits to him, which had been investigated by his solicitor and agent, Mr Grey (the next witness). Mr Violet explained that he had received from Rangers
40 in addition to his contract of employment, a separate document in respect of “his” sub-trust. His concern was in securing a satisfactory overall financial “package”. He understood in general terms that he could access monies in the sub-trust by way of loan and that ordinarily the Trustee would be agreeable to this. He had used the loan

There can be no justification in anonymising this verdict.
When innocent people are charged with crimes and go before the courts in this country their names and addresses are given in public in the court and then if necessary published in the press.
Why are tax-dodgers being granted anonymity?
One for my elected representative I think.
Captain Scarlet…and the Mysterons!
So what does it all mean, will they have to sell Badgerville to get the Revenue off their backs?

See cut and paste below……..
“These are the two chief tenets derived from the case law I have relied on, and they
have guided me in my reasoning to arrive at the end result that the trust payments are
to be construed as ‘emoluments’ for the purposes of the tax legislation.”

Well, that’s the entire visible spectrum on the FF blacklist.
I wonder if Walter now has a colour instead of no surname ?
Allegedly – wee Billy Dodds has phoned in sick.
Name and shame the lot of them!
Hallelujah!
The Promised Day has come.
And isn’t it just the sweetest cherry on top of the cake that Celtic are in Lisbon on Big Cup duty at the very moment that this nail is hammered into the coffin of Rangers ?
Congratulations, Paul, on your own stupendous contribution towards ensuring that this day of justice finally arrived. No praise is too high.
Paul,
I also, too, as well, am shocked also, too re Mister Sir David Murray.
I’m wondering though if maybe he was duped? Is duped the right word for it?
But I remain shocked also. Too. As well.

5Live just reported that rangers have won their case and that HMRC accept that these were loans. Seems at odds with Paul’s article.
