Ask the man in the street to pick an industry where people are self-employed, and I'd bet that engineer and IT consultant are significantly lower on the list than builder, plumber, electrician etc. I can't really see how playing up the self-employed aspect will stop the Lords thinking we are builders, to be honest.
Anyway - as I said earlier, at what stage will a self-employed plumber be stopped from joining up?
