CJ Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Regardless of what we think regarding the verdict, does anyone else think that had they been Joe Bloggs and Tom Smith this would never have seen the inside of a courtroom? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnny g Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Not a chance. They (the HMRC) were looking for a big-name scalp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaveriK Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 I am just glad we, the tax payer, did not waste a bucket full of cash going after a case worth about 30k. Such a close call! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hogmaw Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 If Joe Bloggs or Tom Smith were in the dock they'd be sent down. Redknapp and Mandaric can afford the best lawyers money can buy. Joe and Tom can't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe and Tom can't. But Joe and Tom haven't paid over £8m into the public revenue and aren't being chased over a relatively paltry £30k - or 0.375% of his total tax bill.

Abz Posted February 8, 2012 Share Posted February 8, 2012 Yes, 5 year investigation by the police. How the hell can it cost them £8 million pounds to investigate? Did the investigators sit outside his house in Rolls Royce Phantoms everyday? Or did they hire 5,000 people to check his bank account(s). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
