Originally posted by Mordac View PostWish I was still on 1999 rates. 750 p/d for a 6 monther, pre IR35, floated my boat for sure. Paid off most of the mortgage, and a blowout in Vegas shortly afterwards. I probably wasted the rest. Or drank it. Or a bit of both.Comment

World is not safe with Islamic terrorism. Human race needs to eradicate Islamic terrorism. Can't call it a "Golden Age" when people are driving lorries into children, putting bombs in airports, cutting people's heads off, throwing them off buildings, shooting people in cafes and restaurants, week in and week out.
As the author points out, it's bad luck for anyone killed by terrorism, but hardly anyone in Europe is. You're, literally, probably more likely to be struck by lightning.Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment
