WTF?

Re: It's not that hard

Take a chill pill, Sajid.

There is Tax Evasion and there is Tax Avoidance.

If the taxman allowed many directors in the public sector to operate through limited companies while working in the same place for many years then why to stop somebody who actually works some place for fixed period?

The whole thing is not to collect more money, it is to line up the pocket of Crapita and a few more at-arms length (in relationship with HMG) consultancies, revolving doors, outsourcing and all.

A contractor will just walk away, imported Indian worker with precarious visa will just suck up any old shit thrown their way as they know their employment depends on it.
