What was proposed accomplishes nothing on a legal / tax basis but it certainly can be a political weapon, and these people are supposed to have political masters.Comment

This is so stupid.
I've got two things going with UK clients, but they'll be done by October. I think it is time for me to just focus on overseas clients unless/until we get a government that reigns in HMRC and we get some sanity on this topic. I've got multiple people working for me, several things going on, and I've got better things to do than fight with HMRC just because my name ended up on a list somewhere from one of my clients.
I don't know if any of my UK clients will need help from me responding to Brexit but I'm unlikely to be available. Sorry. Maybe in a couple years so I don't have to worry about hassles over past contracts.
In my view, this is worse than 'IR35 Reform'. In that, at least, the client was responsible for making a reasoned determination. This is blanket 'guilty until proven innocent' behaviour without even a hint of providing the evidence to which you are supposed to respond. It's a kangaroo court. We're now a third world country, with a dictatorship, and it doesn't reside in #10.Comment

GSK will ALWAYS comply with their legal obligations. HMRC has the power to ask for lists and no doubt will.
That is inevitable and consequently playground games designed to delay and frustrate are pointless.
Better I suggest is for those who are impacted to get to their insurer/adviser, put together a good defence, (or let's be honest, decide to concede), and get that to HMRC.
