Which as a tax payer I am in full agreement with.

As far AIUI this isn't an HMRC issue, its a loan from DCMS. So as long as the clubs are paying their taxes it should be none of HMRCs business.

I will vote for anyone, Farage, Corbyn, Johnson, Sunak, Truss, Starmer, Davey,  Marx (Karl, Groucho, Marks and Spencers, I don't care) who promises to call in the loans and sends the shitshow off stage.
Bonus points for bankrupting Tigers, whose fans met our demise with little short of glee.

However the HMRC are acting as "collection agents" for the DCMS. If I remember correctly it was them deciding that we were likely to default on tax (which they had previously came to an arrangement about) and the DCMS loan that brought about our demise.

Yes, they are the collection agents for these loans.
