I have yet to ask Qudos about the viability of transferring company shares to the 'Doogles' of this world yet though.

    Employing staff is a clear pointer to IR35 exemption.


    Denny, you are the man, errr, woman!

    Denny, how does owning a pet impact on your IR35 status?

    I believe that animals serve a purpose, and that their purpose is to fulfill their biological imperative, namely, to reproduce.

    However, evolution seems to have dropped the ball on this one.

    I mean, c'mon, how many fekking flies, cockroaches, worms, rabbits, cats, dogs, and the rest do we need for crying out loud ?

    It's like evolution has been instructed to execute an infinite LOOP.

    Therefore, it's our job, as good programmers, to rewrite the code, and prevent design error mutations.

    Hence, we eat, shoot, kill, stab, wear and maim the little fekkers.

    Not because we are evil.

    But because we are tidying up the code.

    Because they've got better trade unions.

    Because animals are NICE (except kittens) and not horrible like people.
