Transcript of HMRC Investigators Dave King and Janet Robinson interviewing HMRC Manager, Tony Smith on the 11 August, 2004, after Mr Smith had submitted a complaint that HMRC Whistleblower Andi Ali was an extremist for heckling the far right British National Party (BNP) at a peaceful anti-racist protest in Burnley. At an Employment Tribunal hearing in 2007, HMRC solicitor Ian Painter admitted that HMRC had misused public funds to charge Mr Ali with the said offence. He also admitted that all the other allegations Mr Smith made against Mr Ali in this transcript were false, including expressing support for sucide bombers. Despite this, Mr Smith was promoted and Mr Ali sacked after Mr Ali raised concerns under the Public Interest Disclosure Act (1998) and refused to keep quite even when offered a promotion to do so.
