I really like my bench at the moment. The lack of any Management presence, other than Mrs Scruff, is liberating.I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).Comment

Case study
Brillo Pad, 54, lives in Llandudno, north Wales, with his wife and three children. He works as an IT contactor for a large investment bank in the city, renting a room in the suburbs during the week and returning home at weekends. Changes to IR35 — the rule which would tax workers as if they were regular employees — could cost him thousands of pounds a year, he claimed and said that he would probably have to emigrate.
“When contractors are forced out, their place will be taken by large consultancies, paying little tax,” Mr Pad added.
Then there is a picture of a scourer.Comment
