HMRC Consultative Document - marketed tax avoidance schemes

All in all it makes me question whether its really worth it.
If HMRC are given the right to basically claim what they like, when they like, and retrospectively backdate it to whenever they feel like (an over simplification I know but I can't be the only one who thinks we're not far of it) - then really, what is the point?
Future years of wondering if HMRC will change the rules and move the goalposts again and again and again.
I can't be the only one for the off...........Comment

Also limited companies are not going to be impacted by this real. IR35 is virtually the only means of attacking service companies without impacting other limited companies and no government will want to do that....
You seem to be randomly spreading ideas round without any basis in reality words and law.... Having shot down the idea that Section 9a covers limited companies (and it doesn't 9a is for the self employed and individual tax payers) is there any other unsubstantiated rubbish that you want me to shoot down with actual evidence.....merely at clientco for the entertainmentComment

Varuk, However the reality is as of today this legislation will go through and the only hope is that it gets watered down in some form. In the meantime everyone needs to prepare for the worst. I know from your previous mails you are doing so.
