    Seems they're damned if they do, damned if they don't.

    I personally think it's a good advert.

    Or too much too soon. They cannot win.

    I think this shows the direction IPSE are headed in... they want to be seen by their members to be doing stuff, rather than actually focusing on achieving anything.

    Agreed , this is my last yr with IPSE - and I expect Taylor to shaft us and IPSE

    Regardless of why the change in approach (ie if one presumes how few will be members if they no longer need insurance post a private sector rollout), I still think it's better than doing the same old stuff/nothing.

    I'm sure the ruling party will be quaking in their boots knowing that IPSE have got a van with a sign on the side of it riding around the streets.
    At least there is some visibility now,as opposed to the supposed 'key meetings in private rooms with keep people in gov'

    There has also been a Guardian (I know...) Interview.

    It's a start, go out fighting and all that

    This bit sounds fun: -
    Removing the burden of policy making from an already under-resourced HMRC

    Nicely put. HMRC should never have been making policy - only implementing it.

    It may not necessarily be successful but kudos to trying something more/new/different pre Taylor.
