                What appears to be happening is that these indians are actually domiciled in India but they are saying on their Linkedin profiles that they are in the UK - presumably to create the impression that they are local.
                Let us not forget EU open doors immigration benefits IT contractors more than anyone

                  What's their gain tho? To push ICT's or to get the odd chancer willing to take 180/day for a 450/day role and they take a huge margin?

                  The ICT route will close anyway, I'm sure of that - even now it does not lead to PR.

                    I would imagine that this is the case and that they supply to Indian "offshore" companies, though I think you are being a little optimistic if you think the ICT system will change.

                      I find Bob stories very funny, and without ICTs there would be less of them.

                      Ergo, should I be in favour of ICTs?
