    This bounty hunter is my kind of scum.

    I see.

Essentially a very Soviet idea of how society should be run.

    started a topic Grass them in to HMRC

    Grass them in to HMRC

    How the Chief People Officer for the Civil Service suggested departments could try and stop the mass exodus from the public sector


    Dave Chaplin on LinkedIn: "IR35 / OFF-PAYROLL: How the Chief People Officer for the Civil Service suggested departments could try and stop the mass exodus from the public sector.

    In a nutshell.... he suggested they shop the contractor to HMRC as a way to retain them.

    This tactic didn't work. People left anyway. Still.... nice to see the Civil Service Human Resources department using thinly veiled threats to retain self-employed workers.

    All in the name of fairness etc. "


    wow just wow
