I really do think that some posters need to remind themselves of the fact that because they say something is wrong, it doesn't actually make it so. Nor does saying something is right make it so either. This attitude is actually firmly in place elsewhere too and it serves nobody any good except for the warm fuzzy feeling it gives to those who exercise this ridiculous attitude.

Not a show piece law suit.
Your representatives at IPSE seem quite unable to recognise this (by design that is exactly what HMG want) and have no idea what they can do anyway.
Actually, they can do nothing. Even a rear guard action will fail, as per recent episodes.
I am mighty glad I chucked it all in. I am sorry for those following me. Meanwhile TPTB at IPSE are still arguing amongst themselves about "the rules" at their rather pathetic internet forum at every given opportunity. Everyone else has now left.
OK, so not all wrong. You got one minor thing partially correct. Sorry...Blog? What blog...?Comment

As for PSCs..... If HMRC really wanted to get more tax from them then why wouldn't they do what most of Europe does?
Mind you, seems to work to the extent that CUK gives them their safe spaces, even though they've been undercutting honest PSC contractors for years.Comment
