Oh Carp - This is how IR35 started last time

BBC advises stars on avoiding tax

MANY of the BBC’s highest-paid presenters have set up service companies that help them to pay less tax and will enable them to escape the full impact of Labour’s 50% levy on the rich.

Long-serving stars including Jeremy Paxman, Fiona Bruce and James Naughtie have set themselves up as freelance contractors rather than staffers.

The device enables the BBC and its presenters to lower their tax bills legally, leaving the rest of the country to shoulder a larger burden.

A Sunday Times investigation has found more than 20 BBC presenters who are classed as freelance for tax purposes and have set up service companies to channel their earnings. ...

Wasn't it former BBC Director General John Birt's similar arrangements which the Government used in the 1990s as a pretext to bring in IR35 ?

Better have that KY handy ...
