Hi, I was told today at the Post Office that I can put a cover letter in my application saying that I need to travel in 3 weeks and it might help get my current (US) passport back while I wait for my British passport application to be processed. This is because I am scheduled to travel to the US. B...

I assume that the business structure of your friend's business is that of a partnership, and that it is not a limited company in which he is a mere shareholder. Alternatively, if there is a company then he's a director or involved in the running of the business. To be excused from the penalty, the e...

This is a HC decision with leave to appeal to the Court of Appeal - and onward to the SC. Perhaps a referral to the ECJ s...
