Originally posted by skysies View PostHave no idea who that guy is...Anyway, I'm trough a consultancy, not directly with the client. So hopefully, even if they implement IR35 in the private sector, it won't apply to cases like mine..

Originally posted by Darkling View PostI note that our old enemy David Gauke has been moved from the treasury to Work and Pensions Secretary. I take this as a sign the government now accepts the 'problem' of contracting cannot be dealt with through taxation alone, as 'useful idiots' make the foolish argument that "if we're taxed like employees we should have employment rights".

Rather than roll out the 'off-payroll' rules to the private sector, I suspect we will now be lumbered with measures notionally designed to support 'vulnerable' gig economy workers - yes we'll get our precious 25 days 'paid' holiday per year, but the engager will be required to pay employer's NICs, and our day rates will be pro-rated down to pay for all of it.

Just a couple of months ago we were all saying "all we know is they won't announce it ahead of a General Election"...
Our thinking is that they'll have to bring it in at some point or else admit to creating a two-tier system with the Public Sector being made more expensive to run than the Private Sector. Make your own political arguments on that one, I'm not touching it with a barge pole.
Sadly, it's easier for the media to point at contractors and shout "tax-dodgers" than it is to present a balanced argument for the benefits and challenges of contracting. Where the media leads, the politicians usually follow.
Only hope (and I hate myself a little for saying this) is serious lobbying from the front-benchers best friends who would prefer their contractor costs did not rise, thank you very much.

And in some cases PS ended up paying alot more. You would have thought they would have learned their lesson.

This government will still go ahead with it.
Time for Plan B.
