I love Crickhowell, lovely little town - I have a base not very far in Newbridge-on-wye.
I love the idea too, we were just discussing how the .gov is trying to squeeze the IT contractor field, while at the same time still leaving the obvious loopholes used by the megacorps to screw the system.
Seems that the lobbyists of the megacorps are still earning their keep...
- sofaofthedamned 11y agoYeah, IR35 started off that beating by the Government.
- chillydawg 11y agoI think that was a perfectly valid change, frankly. Acting like a full time employee and claiming the tax and pay perks of a contractor was obviously not the intent of the law.
- sofaofthedamned 11y agoI'm 50/50 on it. Was a contractor at the time and it was a blunt hammer instrument that denied me the benefits a multinational would get when I plainly wasn't a disguised employee. It's like with the tax credits thing at the mo - I think people would stomach the cuts more if the government was as ravenous about squeezing large multinationals as the smaller guy.
