Bluedell 5,627 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 Tax avoidance has to turn into tax evasion if they think they're entitled to bill you for the cash surely? I'd say tax evasion is where you are deliberately settng out to not ppay tax by illegal means. I'm yet to be convinced that the EBT scheme falls into that category. It's not as if the use of it was hidden for example. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All a bit confusing in fairness. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All a bit confusing in fairness. I am confused by this too as my understanding now is that they are not pursuing us but the individuals who benefited from it, therefore where did the huge tax amount come from? Was that the amount owed but now they are saying not from us? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblue 64 57 Posted July 7, 2012 Share Posted July 7, 2012 I don't believe Murray has done anything to warrant jail. I believe Whyte should but doubt that he will. You dont make fortunes like Murray has getting duped by shysters like Whyte, i reckon he knew exactly what he was getting us into but was backed into a corner by the bank. If Whyte is guilty of any crimes then Murray should be held to account. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
