Stupidity isn’t much of an excuse either as most are/were reasonably well paid individuals so have a basic level of intelligence (albeit not a lot of wisdom).
So no sympathy here. I get infractions when I state my view on that other forum.
Do you like HMRC?Comment

Originally posted by northernladuk View PostBearing in mind the petition to stop the IR35 changes coming in to the public sector only got 15k votes, what are the chances of you actually making 100k? It also raised quite a bit of a stink because it was utter tulip.
Blindly creating poor petitions when there is zero chance it's going to go anywhere doesn't help anyone IMO.
People sign anything these days. Attach a reasonable story to it and off you pop. Specially if there is a little bit of cash behind it to raise awareness.
IR35 is relatively complicated in its meaning. This is relatively simple to understand therefore can attract more interest.Comment
