Ian Lavery: Ex-Labour Party chairman faces questions over tax affairs
Ian Lavery says he “does not owe a single penny” in tax and has never paid a penalty to HMRC. …
When the trade union watchdog, the Certification Officer, looked into the issue in 2017, they said: “Both the union and Mr Lavery were given the opportunity to provide documentary evidence to show a process or decision by which Mr Lavery was made redundant. Neither was able to do so and stated that no such documentary evidence existed.”
