    We know exactly what you mean - and agree totally.

    The question is how you get that over to the mob - placated by only cheap beer and TV football.

    Government, Footballers and Bankers seem to achieve it. However getting us into that league will be very difficult.

      Matt O'Connor learnt a valuable lesion when interviewed by Fiona Bruce. He expected a balanced interview and got sandbagged. He was not prepared.

      If you are going to be interviewed, ALWAYS GET DIRT ON THE INTERVIEWER FIRST.

        BBC Radio 4 is looking into the impact of the IR35 rule change for the public sector, and interested to speak to individuals who have been affected.

        We would be keen to hear from anybody who has seen significant change in the area they work in, or has seen their circumstances change significantly.

        If you are interested to let us know about your experience, please reply to this thread, and I will send you a private message.

        Many thanks.

            To prove that those who apply will not be left to twist in the wind.

            I have seen it happen too many times.

            Generally the BBC are better than most. But not much.

                  The contractor gave a good, articulate account, I thought.
