We had HMRC finally throw in the IR35 towel in the Kaye Adams case after 10 years \u2013 think about it for a moment, 10 years! As I type, and basically as a result of these two issues, we are seeing significantly more coverage and momentum building around, as Dave Chaplin puts it, \u201cthe iniquitous Loan Charge [that] has ambushed over 50,000 people with extortionate back tax bills, devastating families\u2014bankrupting parents and driving some to take their own lives out of sheer desperation\u201d.

This includes liberal use of the phrase: \u201cThe claim triggered an alert on our systems and has caused HMRC to believe that you have fraudulently claimed money to which you are not entitled.
