The official Budget 2017 DOOM thread
The government know of all workers that self-employed and limited company directors are least likely to put up any kind of protest. I think it's time we organised a very strong protest that sends the government a very clear message. I'm thinking we all organise a 'sign-up as jobless' week and... -

The Decision Tool :)
Agreed. They have Scala and microservices so thats 2 'hot' technologies, shame they can't correctly define a CSV file https://github.com/hmrc/off-payroll-decision/blob/master/conf/tables/1.0.1-beta/matrix-of-matrices.csv- JaredM

What is the 2019 Loan Charge?
It will end when everyone is on PAYE or the dole. Anything in between is considered tax dodging.- JaredM

Are contracts really worth the paper they are written on
FWIW, I have always insisted on a < 2 week notice period. If ClientCo want longer then I tell them the contract would need to explicitly state that if client serves notice they must pay for all working days up until the end of the notice period whether they require work or not. 3 clients have...- JaredM

2 Offers: Modern Tech at a Big Bank vs. Laid-back Fintech Company
I once worked next to a guy who was on £550/day for developing contact forms for a client in the South West. I had the same thought. Would take him 3-4 days to develop a basic (and I do mean basic) contact form and for whatever reason his stuff never showed up properly in the .NET form...- JaredM

Tax Schemes - Agencies being hit
I'm sure you've all seen this posted on another thread: https://www.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/526614/Off-payroll_working_public_sector-reform_intermediaries_legislation.pdf and this little nugget (emphasis is mine): Based on that, I can't see HMRC getting...- JaredM

Tax Schemes - Agencies being hit
Sounds to me like HMarse are reacting to the IR35 consultation results: 1. Hit some big end-users with PAYE penalties => "Oh this wouldn't happen if you'd used our wonderfully clear digital tool that'll tell you who to run PAYE for (hint: everyone)." 2. Threaten agencies with the same => "Oh...- JaredM

Signed. But to get 100k votes just isn't gonna happen, most of the population are more concerned about reality TV. Sadly.- JaredM

No To Retro Tax - Ongoing battle against S58 FA2008
If HMRC acknowledge there was a problem with serving notices then they have to re-issue everyone (since they can't work out who has and has not been served). And if they call you, everyone ought to just say 'yes, we've received correspondence from HMRC' and promptly hang up. It gets more...- JaredM

No To Retro Tax - Ongoing battle against S58 FA2008
Well an APN arrived some days ago. Odd thing: it is addressed to an individual I've no connection with (totally different name and address to me). Forwarded on immediately to Montp. I suspect that may be why HMRC bods are busy trying to call people to find out who received one and who didn't...- JaredM

Another reason HMRC can't be trusted.
HMRC tax injustice: London businessman attempted suicide over 'evasion' vendetta as super-rich HSBC dodgers went free No need to say more really. Very sad to read.:devil So who decided they were trustworthy enough to issue APNs with very little right to challenge?- JaredM

No To Retro Tax – Campaign Against Section 58 Finance Act 2008
Whilst not related to us I found this article on the BBC a good read: BBC News - Calls for single 30% income tax rate The article didn't mention tax avoidance implications but I'm sure it would be reduced if there was a very simple rate of tax for all. It would provide clarity and certainty if...- JaredM
