A Laurel, and Hardy handshake to all IPSE Refugees
How bad are IPSE forums if they are worse than CUK?
Intelligent life would make a change round here.
CUK forums are alive.
The oxygen of forum members has been sucked from the IPSE pond.

CUK may not have the most erudite conversation but at least it has some activity. IPSE forums are absolutely dead as a doornail, particularly since so many old hands upped and left (some of whom I see posting here under alternative pseudonyms, but they can't hide that easily ). The Management seem to make no efforts to promote the forums, I suspect they'd quite like to quietly drop them.
I was with CUK before IPSE and kept the same username for both. I ain't hiding under no rock...

I have (had) the same name, and see no reason to use a Sockie.
I was an IPSE Consultative Council Member, until the BoD abolished it. I am not an IPSE Member, since they have no longer have any relevance to me, as an IT Contractor. Read my lips...I recommend QDOS for ALL your Insurance requirements (Contact me for a referral code).
When your main account is boring enough there is no need
OK ok it was a joke. Down NAT, Down boy.
That's fine. I'm used to insults from NorthernMonkeyUK

There are too many within the Executive and Non-executive hierarchy who would see this as "a good thingTM". Those would be the very same people that appear to be driving the IPSE bus off a cliff. Sad times.
Will keep the ipse top brass gamely employed on £200K+ (plus elected bod on 21K a year - 35k for chairman ) for many a year selling insurance , while they watch ipse burn
Pity they could have stopped IR35 if they put there minds to it

Has very little time to rest
While gathering his
Bits of twine and twig
Though quite intent in his pursuit
He has a merry tune to toot..."
