      Well that's put rather a dampener on an otherwise cheery day here on CUK.

      Anyone planning any deaths this week?

      Messy divorces perhaps?

          With a whack of Corp tax. to pay on the day am tempted to empty my accounts and go bankrupt if there is no sign of contract work?

          Good idea or not?

          Do you mean declare your Ltd insolvent, or yourself?

          If it's the latter they'll be after your assets, such as any property you own
          Work in the public sector? Read the IR35 FAQ here

              I believe as a matter of principle any contractor who has lost his job as a direct result of offshoring/outsourcing should let the government foot the bill for the UK worker being unemployed.....Declare company Bankrupt!!!

                Mmm.

                If I killed my wife and buried her under patio next to Mordac would that count as a divorce?

                Oh and can I claim expenses for sand & cement?

                  And how do you intend to record this "withdrawl" that doesn't implicate you.

                  Salary, divi or just snatch and run?

                    That is a bit like saying you are going to chop your nads off because someone stole your girl.
