    Irrelevant. Good to see so many people here sticking up for dodgy agencies and dodgy contracts.

    agency wants to be consulting company and my company the supplier

    A) They said the client is forcing this contract, and b) they only seem to have 1 staff.

    you're probably still under the impression its an employment contract. its not. but i guess the government are fuming since its now so easy to bypass agency regulations, right?

The other part is that 2 agencies got involved in putting me forward, one in India, one in London, so both get a cut. As far as...
