Even it does happen, it won't hurt the UK residents' job opportunity and market rate.Originally posted by fullyautomatix View PostI hope to God that this kind of thing is never allowed to happen. The last thing UK wants is a horde of bobs doing work for 50 quid per day.

You want to try people per hour or something like that offering small pieces of work. There is no way you are going to get a contract and you had very straight feedback from ask the agent. The only thing is you don't like it so are looking for some more answers that you like. There aren't any. That is the way we it s so you need to think of something else.
You are not really going to get much help from a UK contractor forum when you want to take a piece of work of shore and do it for peanuts either.'CUK forum personality of 2011 - Winner - Yes really!!!!

So presumably you don't intend to pay tax in the UK either? May I ask why you cannot work in your country of residence?Originally posted by dragon View PostSorry for the confusion that I have caused in the statement of "live outside the UK, want a UK registered company and want to work outside the UK through a UK agency"

A worker lives in a country with a low cost of living (or low tax) and does work for a client based in a country with a high cost of living. The worker gets paid a fee which would be considered relatively low in the client's country but relatively high in the worker's country.Originally posted by LisaContractorUmbrella View PostSo presumably you don't intend to pay tax in the UK either?

The client and worker get the best of both worlds and everyone's a winner except people like me who got made redundant when their job was offshored.
