UK government puts IR35 tax reforms on hold for a year in wake of coronavirus crisis

As someone who has just cancelled his plans to leave a permanent position to go contracting, this delay of IR35 will not change my mind. Much of the damage has already been done. Contractors have left or about to leave. Many companies have put a blanket ban on hiring Limited Company Contractors and are unlikely to do a U-turn just for the sake of the next 12 months. The only thing that would begin to repair the damage is a Government pledge to abandon this odious legislation altogether.
