Rejected petition Call for an enquiry into HMRC v Rangers Football Club

Rangers have suffered great damage as a result of the chain of events sparked by a “fishing-trip” by HMRC - their behaviour and that of several other parties - Lloyds Bank, the Murray Group, Duff & Phelps and the SPL - should now be examined by the relevant authorities.

This whole process has come at considerable expense and questions must be asked at its conclusion as to whether it was in the public interest to commit large amounts of time, money and resources to a legal tax-planning scheme.

Rangers Fans call for a full and transparent public enquiry into the whole process with emphasis on the decision makers at HMRC and their motives and also a full criminal investigation into the steady flow of confidential information that made its way from HMRC into the media and onto faceless online blogs.
