    Malvolio still wants Boris and Rishi stashing tax payers money into friends pockets, opening the IT floodgates, and putting IT contractors into the dustbin of history.
    Don't think I said that at all.

    Do you really think, after 20 years fighting IR35, I am pleased by Chapter 10 and its strengthening of Labour's worst ever piece of legislation?

    Perhaps remind yourself what Schiller said...

      Hey, they had to find a way to sort out the mess they created with IR35!

      Getting cheaper labour from India look like an easy way out!

          It's just to make it easier for Wipro, HCL, Tsys etc etc to get their hives of workers in

            Ahh you want a hung parliament again.

            My MP currently fits your criteria.

            No you just have to vote tactically. If the government of the day is causing problems and you are in a constituency were the majority isn't massive, you hold your nose and vote for the nearest opposition.

              I voted Labour last time. Not because I wanted a Korbyn government, but because I wanted Johnson to be stuck in a minority government.

                That went well then....

                Tactical voting is all well and good but you're still at the mercy who people vote for Clegg because he came over well on that telly programme

                  The thing about democracy is you don't choose the winner. You simply have a say.
                  I'm happy with my choice but not the result. That's life.

                    It is clear that this Tory govt is a party that supports sleaze, corruption, fraud, and supports the destruction of the UK IT sector by various means (legislation, work permits, etc)

                    Therefore I would suggest everyone reconsiders what they THINK are likely to destroy their livelihoods at the next election.
                    All the main parties are in the pocket of the big global mega corporations and therein lies the problem.

                      that's great news to be honest. it means a lot of british people will be able to go to India and open british takeaways. The tables have turned and the sooner we realise it the better.
