This should worry you more

Tax Research UK » The Nayler Report: NHS privatisation by the back door

Doesn't worry me at all. The sooner the NHS starts behaving like a commercially-minded organisation, the better. When it dawns on them that it's their own money they waste, and not simply "other peoples money", maybe they'll stop wasting it by the truckload.

You mean along with everyone else? Heard of market forces?

Yes I have thank you.

Yes I have thank you.

Always a good thing for a small business owner.

However I've realised that you have probably been hit by IR35 in the public sector?

No I've not.

Some rates have skyrocketed in the PS.

So much for the 1% pay freeze in the public sector.

Not my choice really, but they are competing with IB rates now, i.e. the same PS rate as previously + a big chunk extra for being inside IR35.

i.e. old rate £450, new rate £600+

Speaking personally on Corbyn...

Isn't that all the Tories are doing now? Are they afraid of him? Is he the big bad bogeyman? Where is the mention of the Labour party?

My personal position is that of a contractor, supporting an unwell wife and 3 children with Autism.

If Corbyn wins he wants to make all of the people who work for a company, employees of that company. Should this happen, I'll be caught by IR35 as will the vast majority of us I presume. I stand to lose around £30-40k a year. I cannot afford to do that, so I won't be voting for him.

However, what I'd really like to see is him take this further. Make us REAL employees instead, if we are caught by IR35, then we don't pay the employers NI, we get holiday and sick pay and we get benefits too.

Will this be the new way forward for us if he wins? Chasing benefits from our "employers" ?

Where did he say that ? Add a link to your post with some evidence.
