There's probably a good 50% of contractors that really are disguised employees, people who have worked for the same client for multiple years working on multiple projects and BAU work who report to a manager in the traditional business hierarchy and mostly operate under the same rules as other permanent employees but just with a different pay and tax structure. Those are really the ones that IR35 applies to and was meant to apply to. I wouldn't say an independent strategy consultant working on 3 month contract falls into that category but it's up to the client to decide now (come april) and it's up to the consultancy to decide if they want to carry out the work or not.
