Can't be Scooter. He'd be in his private jet by now surely?

[northernladuk]

Don't wish to be rude but bearing in mind this is your job how do you not know enough about IR35 to make this call? I know the burden has been passed on to whoever provides the SDS but that's still no excuse to understand the basics of what you do and how.

Playing tickbox IR35 with zero...

[northernladuk]

Any update on what the OP decided to do? I'll bet we know though.

[northernladuk]

IMO quite the opposite....

[northernladuk]

Was this in Swizzerland or here?...

[northernladuk]

My head hurts ...

[northernladuk]

I think I got it... let me try again.

Shut it or I'll brake your tuliping legs....

[northernladuk]

Absolutely but many more differences on a plus side as well though, handling, breaking and even the acceleration can be a plus as you can get around something and not wait ages to accelerate so all mean you can go faster but more safely. Not quite a good thing but it's not as bad as it sounds in a simple...

In exactly the same situation with my parents. 90 and 93 and both still driving. Both still pretty mobile and switched on the only driving they do is is 2 miles to the supermarket and back a week and not much else thankfully. Neither me nor my sister will get in a car with either of them and tried to...

[northernladuk]

My first thought when I read this was the rate must be much higer due to

Cars generally being higher powered (granted with better safety features)
Number of new learners jumping in to brand new high end leased cars
How busy the roads are
Detractors like phones
...

I'm sure many perms would say the same. Pretty neutral that one.

Great flag but this is ancient history now. You are in the same situation as LJL who started off outside but moved inside so good evidence to stop them coming for you for the whole time you were at the client but irrelevant...

[northernladuk]

he can?...

[northernladuk]

...

[northernladuk]

Good point well made.


Whilst correct I'd imagine they would care when it comes to security and accounts so would depend on what he signed security wise. Did he do it as himself or on behalf of the LTD. She'd at the very least need an account to access the systems so don't think it's...

[northernladuk]

I mentioned the three pillars but didn't say what they aren.. In brief...

The three pillars (or key tests) of IR35 determination are Control, Substitution, and Mutuality of Obligation (MOO), which determine if a contractor is genuinely self-employed (Outside IR35) or effectively an employee...

[northernladuk]

Fat chance of that working with both the quality of the mods and the functionality of the forum ...

[northernladuk]

This is major oops and beyond naive. IR35 has been around a long time and there has been endless discussion on what puts you in/out IR35. To be operating for 10 years and thinking that list puts you outside is very poor. There has never been an automatic trigger to be outside, ever. You haven't even...

[northernladuk]

Most certainly did. Coventry area two weeks before the client sent us all home for lockdown.

Just looking back through my AirBnB history. Quite a trip down memory lane. First stay was October 2015 and I've done at least 6 years away from home using them.

Stayed in one in late...

[northernladuk]

This all day long.



Definitely not this all day long. You are complaining about a 5 hour round trip once every other week (which can be negotiated down once you've got your feet under the table) for the price of a cheap hotel? I don't even hotel these types of gigs. I'd be...

Bearing in mind a vast number of crashes are down to human error you could argue the fact there is no human driver is a bonus.

But yeah I'm going to struggle when it comes to driverless stuff. The idea petrifies me. I know it's irrational and the above is true but still, gonna be a big...
