      Maybe Rishi is going to give us a new super fluffy cotton wool-like landing for IR35...
      Yes. Instead of Zero Hour contracts they are going to change the name to Limited Minute Contracts. Because LMC slips off the tongue easier.

        Umm, Rishi is not a great speaker (this is the first time I've heard him speak).

            Get in! ER kept and only reduced to a 1m lifetime limit, which should only hit us on the top end

                Yep. Big result for contractors.

                1M has got to be more than 95% of contractors are ever likely to hit.

                That said I wouldn't bet against further drops in the lifetime limit

                  That was very surprising.. I definitely thought that ER was history...

                  However, there is bound to be a nasty surprise in there somewhere..

                    Yeah, it's possible there are some "details" in the red book...

                    Didn't sound like it though.
