Advice needed: potential breach of outsideIR35 contract terms by consultancy firm
I remember clients actually paying the notice period before IR35. This is what the legislation has given us, outside may seem great, but legally it's not such a ball. Either way, inside or out, we have very few rights, and the contracts are toilet paper. If you need a safe cocoon, go work for...- TwoWolves

Leaving
Just about every serious business owner and entrepreneur I know is leaving Britain, has left Britain or is planning to leave sometime soon. The schools are losing good teachers and getting hard-left activist replacements with little interest in student welfare. Crime is just way out of... -
Trouble in Right Wing paradise...
I've just learnt from the old bloke next door that Rupert Lowe lives in the village. I'll look out for him on my screen-break walks from now on. If you have any questions you would like me to ask him, just fire away. -
Anyone doing anything with AI
I have the intellij AI assistant plugin. Its coding suggestions are quite weak, bad junior developer level, so I only use it to describe PRs for me (it's good at that). I use another to help generate graphics for technical presentations, which works well and has helped my profile with senior... -
AI misnamed?
Exactly. Not intelligence in any form at all but it does fool the dim-witted. Heuristic pattern interpretation algorithms combined with a natural language-based search engine. Essentially, if it's been said before it can say it again to you - an NPC aggregator of sorts. It won't "solve"... -
How Contracting Has Changed
Your explanation sounds much like it was written by Whitehall/Labour central office, unfortunately, it is the cost of government that is central to our problems. The key indicator is GDP per capita; this has been flatlined since 2008 coupled with a steady climb in liabilities. On the current... -
How Contracting Has Changed
It's not contracting that's gone to hell, it's the whole country. I think almost everyone now thinks the country is finished. -
LA Fires
This is going to trigger a banking crisis. A lot of properties won't be covered and many others will see their insurance company simply default, thus leaving people with a mortgage on a non-existent property which they will default on. Banks were already staggering. -
Outside IR35 now even harder to prove PGMOL ruling
I don't think some of you are paying attention. This government enjoys such wide-spectrum civil service capture that it can write the implementation of any law exactly as they please. What we imagine is law, case law etc has become irrelevant. In the end they will come for us, whatever our... -
end of an era
I've not seen a Tupperware product in a shop in years, has anyone else? You can't buy items that the shops don't stock. -
801 Migrants cross English Channel in 1 day
It's another futile thread. The thing I found fascinating about living in other European countries is how much international law they were quite happy to ignore in their own interests. We on the other hand observe every bizarre superannuated law from another era no matter how much it leads to...
