I have had to resort to a permie position in C++ due to family reasons but they still use C++ contractors here. Also when I was looking I was contacted about a £600pd C++ gig in London and another one at £550pd. There are C++ gigs around if you have an investment banking background. If you don't then maybe not.Comment

I had an email for a C++ job this morning. London and £250pd. Hmmm.
Still lots of people doing C++ (PermieCo wouldn't entertain the idea of using C# or Java). Just perhaps not the people that traditionally recklessly hired lots of contractors on OTT rates (i.e. banks).Will work inside IR35. Or for food.Comment

IMHO, the python indentation thing is a massively retrograde step, harking back to punched cards and FORTRAN and COBOL, and completely wrecks what would otherwise be a pretty neat and consistent language.Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ hereComment
