    Terminate contract prematurely to support IR35 potential case?

    Thanks, I agree, good point. The news that I might not be renewed generated instantly a whole raft of tasks to keep me more than busy for at least two days this week. I will speak to my client rep and see what they think of the above mentioned approach of me leaving them early. To confirm -...

    Terminate contract prematurely to support IR35 potential case?

    I am sorry but this is politically incorrect question and I am not going to answer it. I can only say that I have my moral norms and I most of the time stick to them with some 10-20% deviations here and there. I consider IR35 not fair hence why I am trying to cover myself to the maximum extent.

    Backup strategy for small business

    1 TB storage(Dropbox) with unlimited history(all file deltas) is probably less than 100 usd PER Year, I am sure there are other cloud providers that can get you sorted for a few hundred quid. Then any simple script will do, even manual once a week will also do, manual full BKP on Fridays and...
