What's more likely is that clients insure themselves directly. A liability on the PSC effectively means a liability on them insofar as it falls on them first.

This is why the FTPA is such a problem as it allows a dysfunctional government to carry on at the whim of parliament.

There is also a lot of risk around this they won't want to touch with a barge pole.

Just thinking about who they cover and then looking at their website I am struggling to believe how this will be of any use. I can't believe it will do anything close to what a 'proper' union would do.
I can't see them helping you through expensive or complex court cases or anything.
Happy to be proven wrong.

Originally posted by Lance View Postif there's no budget taxation doesn't just cease. It will continue. And spending will just continue.
IR35 legislation could potentially be a bill on its own, as long as it wasn't brought in by the government.
A Finance Act does not provide the Gov't with the authority to borrow, but it does provide the authority to tax, in particular on taxes that are renewed annually, as well as the provisional authority to tax on any measures introduced within a particular Finance Bill (which must be passed within 5 months IIRC, otherwise the provisional authority is lost and the taxes must be refunded). There are many important taxes that are renewed annually, like income tax and corporation tax. VAT and excise duties can continue though.
Bottom line, without a budget and a FB progressing to an FA.... absolute chaos.

Originally posted by SussexSeagull View PostNot that I think it will do them any good but I imagine someone will.
However, I'm beginning to suspect that there are political machinations afoot in both the IPSE and Alcock cases.

And I very much doubt that anyone else would either unless they are rich, proud AND stupid.

Originally posted by jamesbrown View PostYes, but, realistically, there *must* be a budget, one way or the other, so they can continue to raise revenue and spend. It's just a question of precisely when and who will be delivering it. But, let's face it, among the range of options, a Tory budget may be bad, but it could be worse...

Awaiting a Finance Bill, which is awaiting a budget, which might otherwise have been expected around November. Now? Who knows.
And BoJo will just limply hang around till his popularity is so low that either the 1922 committe bin him or he resigns, and then we'll get a GE after they've chosen a new great leader.
If Labour have any sense (not enough do) they'll steal a march by binng JC at conference to be ahead of the game when that happens. Unfortunatley the Kult is strong.
Suffice to say, unless BoJo can get a GE in the next 4/5/6 weeks, there isn't going to be a finance bill 2019.
