    You would be incredibly unlikely to win by claiming unfair dismissal.

    In the past two posters (probably the same one) claimed to have taken their agency or client to court over this kind of thing and won. Since becoming a contractor, I have never read any court or tribunal decision which supports this kind of thing and enables you to be classed as an independent worker.

    Yet.
    I've always wondered if HMRC ever chased the cases that won an unfair dismissal case. Surely to win you have to prove its a contract of employment so a slam dunk IR35 win for HMRC. Did they ever go tax from these cases?

        There are a lot of things which have been assumed here or plain fabricated here in your response - plain did not fit in , upset someone ... kind of remarks . Must say vivid imagination for sure Nevertheless a solicitor representing me would work details otherwise and to my favour as mentioned by gov.uk under i think unfair dismissal.

        Thank you for the effort to pen down speculation on what actually happened.
        Whether you like it or not UK contractor just said what most are thinking.
        Not many contractors get walked off site like that and if they do it’s because they’re just not very good.
        Given your lack of understanding of contracting , and sensitive response to the post I think it’s quite likely you were removed due to lack of fit.

        Answer me this question. Did any other contractors get removed at the same time?
        See You Next Tuesday
