1. @Jesse_Norman you purport to be an intellectual so could you help me with a question that has been troubling me for sometime regarding your statement in the interview below. If not maybe your boss @BorisJohnson could help.

2. You state you cannot go after promoters as they did nothing actually illegal & that you don& #39;t want to bring in retrospective legislation to pursue them. So my 1st question is at what point in this transaction from promoter to user does the legality change? #LoanCharge
3. Let& #39;s call the promoters Party A & end users Party B. So A has a product that is legal, they sell the product to Party B & Party A charges a fee. Now you are saying that Party B has acted outside the law & you will bring in retrospective legislation to punish them #LoanCharge
4. The same retrospective law changes that you said you wouldn& #39;t bring in to go after the promoters. Is that because some of the promoters like Doug Barrowman are @conservatives party donors? Is it because the little people wouldn& #39;t fight back?
5. I& #39;ve racked my brains & tried to think of a transaction where legality changes between seller & buyer. How about a gun dealer selling a gun legally to someone & then they use it to commit murder. But then unlike victims of #LoanCharge even a murderer has access to the courts.
6. @Jesse_Norman we haven& #39;t committed murder, we only took professional advice. Yet the #LoanCharge removes our access to the normal judicial process. You brought in retrospective legislation for us but not for promoters. So Mr Academic explain how this works. I& #39;m all ears.
