Surprised you're not claiming that "Stay Alert" comes for the communist implementation of IR35.
Stay Alert does NOT come from French. There's several French words that could be used:
Attentif - in English that's "attentive"
L'affut - On the lookout
Prudent - Prudent
Alerte - youthful energy
The phrase the French have chosen for the current state of CV-19 is:
"Sauvez des vies, restez prudents" - Save lives, remain prudent.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Some people may like that the government is creating restriction to market for small businesses and favours large consultancies. That is understandable, as not having to compete with those contractors means it will be easier to find opportunities and maintain higher prices for end clients.Originally posted by WTFH View PostYour definition of "very valid comments" and mine are wildly different.Comment
