Congrats to the winners, but I have to say there are some strange names amongst the runners up. Crapita and Barclays immediately spring to mind. My only experience with the former involved telling me my rate was too high (even though it was at the arse end of nowhere and involved £120 daily expense) and then offering a contract that was so far inside IR35 it might as well have been traced in crayon by Hector himself, so the expenses are automatically non tax-deductible. I worked out that under their terms I might just about have been able to do them on minimum wage legislation.
My only experience with the latter is reading for the last decade about routine 10-20% rate cuts, so that nowadays you're expected to rectify the mess created by a veritable army of Bobs for thruppence ha'penny. Both are on the block list, and will most likely stay there.His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...Comment

I'm considering this is a distinct possibility as DA won last year.
It also means, in addition, that D000hgy would have been a strong contender to winThe Chunt of Chunts.Comment

Well done to Darren and Simon.
Some of the voting in other categories is a bit of an eye-opener given how much they've been slagged off on here.The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing the world that he didn't existComment

Maybe a lesson there is for MP to consider the timings of her shenanigans to dovetail the voting seasonComment
