It figures
When HMRC thinks you did something wrong, they first take your money or lock your accounts, and then they talk. When HMRC screws up, they don't seem to care.
Their CEST tool has been proven to be a joke, and nothing's changed. They still use it as gospel.
IR35 is an abusive legislation designed to downright steal money from hard working people. They want us to pay taxes as if we're employed, but they don't care that we have none of the rights and benefits employees have.
Downright shameful.
