      Yep, probably, but I don't think telling them I have to be able to wfh is going to change their policy.

      I would walk but despite me sending out over 80 applications this month I've only had 3 calls and they were junior agents messing me about.

      Either I've become un marketable in these past 3 months or the market has dried up in the BA / PM space.

      So really it's either a possible IR35 fail, or losing my house as the warchest is not back to full strength.
      Knock first as I might be balancing my chakras.

        Sometimes the market is really tulipty.

            Make sure your PCG+ is up to date.

            (Piece of advice - if the market is really as bad as you're finding it, I'd suggest a more conciliatory tone than "you ****ed this up lads and I just saved your bacon" when you have your client meetings.)

                      IR35 investigation might never happen, whereas the bank will definitely have your house out from under you if you don't pay the mortgage, so it's pretty obvious which of those is more important.
