🚨 BREAKING: Damning new reports expose key roles played by #charteredaccountants & #recruitmentagencies in the #LoanChargeScandal. There was industrial mis-selling for profit for huge commissions & fees, yet the Government refuses to tackle perpetrators.

In infamous words of James Murray, why #McCannReview cannot be final word on #LoanChargeScandal.

With 'reviewer' not having final say on published recommendations how can it be 'independent'?

🚨#LoanChargeScandal NEW: @RachelReevesMP rightly slammed Michelle Mone & Doug Barrowman over #PPE scandal but broke promise to hold an independent review failing to investigate why the Conservative Govt introduced the #LoanCharge & ignored promoters‼️💩 hmrcloancharge.info/wp-content/upl…

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.

With all the latest about Barrowman/Mone, a reminder of the #LoanChargeScandal.

Strange that the Tory Govt introduced a law that let promoters off the hook whilst pursuing those they mis-sold to🤔💴

We wrote to @Jesse_Norman in 2020 but no reply…💩

Keeping up pressure indeed, watch @gregsmith_uk question Chancellor on shocking #FOI revelation that companies settled for 15% in contrast to #LoanChargeScandal victims.

Justice demands full #LoanChargeInquiry.

Thank you for long term support Greg.

LCAG press release condemns 'review' into #LoanChargeScandal, which fails to review LC, as sham & betrayal.

Outrageously ToR excludes promoters entirely, despite @RachelReevesMP claiming they "real culprits"

“What Government has announced today is not review at all, as it actually astonishingly excludes reviewing Loan Charge."

- Steve Packham, LCAG

Where is investigation into actions promoters, HMRC, agencies & more? #LoanChargeReview ignores all

Disgraceful #LoanChargeReview rightly denounced by @loanchargeAPPG Co-Chair @gregsmith_uk on @IainDale show.

"Total sham, not review #LoanChargeScandal... piece of theatre, not saying anything... Civil servants hoodwinked ministers"

Thank you both 🙏

Those responsible for whole #LoanChargeScandal must be held to account @jamesmurray_ldn. Policy massive failure with 40k cases outstanding and,unbelievably, 275k+ scheme users in 2021-23.

Thank you to @mariecgoldman for asking Treasury how many promoters of #LoanChargeScandal schemes have been prosecuted. Referring to earlier answer @jamesmurray_ldn confirms none specifically for promoting.
