[AtW]

WTF head of student finance is even paid so much - £140k for a position where he dishes out money, more or less admin kind of job?!?!

Apparently he is a genius with a great record in public and private sector on turning around failing organisations. You have to pay a fortune for anyone who is any good - ask the bankers, Dodgy etc.

Bingo!

The words "IR35" and "IT Consultants" have just been mentioned on Newsnight.

Even Maitlis is whinging that it's "not fair".

Yes its simple to identify, she told us so. Maybe they should tell HMRC how because they keep getting whipped in court. Pity the dodgy IT contractors so cleverly avoid just paying, then party supporters would be the only ones who get off tax free.

The thing that struck me most about the BBC's investigation was their omission to mention that many of their own big earners, Paxo and Maitlis included, make use of ltd companies to channel earnings themselves [1].

The hypocrisy of the BBC in this is stinking, but strangely none of the right-wing press seem to have picked up on it.

Paxperson writes for the papers and writes books too - surely a defintion of multiple clients - that bloke from student loans only appears to do one job.

True, but that detail is lost on the BBC in any case, it's all about him not paying enough tax guv innit.

If his main permanent job is BBC he should be getting PAYE from there and on the side he can make some money via Ltd writing books. It's not like his job is inherently temporary in BBC.
