        PS Why were there no violent riots over IR35? Maybe it's not too late!

              Well that's one way for the government to get support for their bill - disrupt a peaceful protest with a load of thugs and turn it into a riot.

                Now that is proper cynicism!

                  I don't 100% believe that's what happened here but I do wonder at the motivation behind those that kicked off.

                    I doubt the government is actually behind it but something stinks maybe these riots are where the football hooligans went to.
