Great just what we need more IT project managers.

What a bloody project manager? They are two to a penny, you can't sneeze without falling over one.
Difficult balance to make but I'd certainly rather take in this bloke, with a very bright kid, who supports our technology sector than a lot of low skilled workers fuelling our surplus of low productivity businesses like cafes, cold calling companies etc. They do not begin to pay their fair share of tax/NI and simply keep afloat businesses which would otherwise make no economic sense.bloggoth

oh and the route he has entered means he will not have paid as much tax and national insurance as a local, so not meeting your "fair share of tax/NI" criteria.Comment
