The £104m IR35 Lesson: What the Post Office Case Really Means for Your Business https://t.co/DgplF5n4Pd

£104m! £104m!

[MichaelCee1982 @MichaelcleaveF]

IR35 compliance isn’t just a box to tick, it’s a test of governance. From finance and tax to HR and procurement, we’ve seen the same costly mistakes repeated across UK organisations. There are hundreds of private sector enquiries ongoing with HMRC today.

Here are five you’ll want to avoid.

@SeanDZWalsh The most sensible and accurate statement I’ve seen on it yet.

@tobyjhenley Still available? I know someone who might be interested.

Fans are advancing off the Skywalk

The only minor glimmer of hope I have for this transfer window is that internally peoples egos and self-esteem cannot possibly accept this level of failure. The fan and manager sentiment will be so damaged especially if we get a few injuries.

We will either end up overpaying for a big player because we cannot get the ones available at the right price. or end up with 2x good but not greats.

I know where my money goes….

Most people would be watching this thinking if we give Frank players he wants we can achieve stuff. Levy will be watching thinking we don’t need anymore

Supply chain misclassification risk.

IR35 and worker misclassification don't just sit with the contractors you know about. If you’re buying labour-based services through a third party, you haven’t outsourced or avoided the risk, it nearly always sits with you as the end client.

We're seeing this as a common issue in contractor heavy sectors, the third sector, finance, pharma and manufacturing. But it happens across the board.

We’ve all met a “Bob the IT Director” who insists “IR35 doesn’t apply because the supplier isn’t a contractor”. Yet Bob’s supplier is quietly supplying contractors straight into the IT team. Bob should not be anywhere near your IR35 governance committee, let alone setting or influencing policy.

Procurement teams buying professional services, consultancy, IT services - this needs to be on your radar too. Plenty of content on our website.

Curious where your hidden risks sit? We can run a rapid audit. Let’s talk.

@Moneymoonzx Unfortunately recent experience suggests your head will remain firmly attached to your body.

[MichaelCee1982 @MichaelcleaveF]

@RickySacks @ChangeForSpurs Great summary Ricky. Word for word how I felt waking up this morning. It’s complete embarrassment.

[MichaelCee1982 @MichaelcleaveF]

People sitting in your reserved seat on a train. A situation I've never managed to conquer with grace or real success.

Podcast moment of the week: High Performance Podcast

During a Harvard Business Review study on executive communication, they found that when leaders paused and allowed silence, their teams actually rated them as more confident... even when the content itself didn’t change. This is particularly powerful when delivering bad news, as Dr. Rahul Jandial, renowned brain surgeon, explains.

Someone speaking too quickly or saying too much creates cognitive overload. Whereas a pause, even for 30 seconds or a full minute, gives people a chance to think, process and respond.

The problem is we’re taught the opposite. Silence feels awkward, so we rush to fill it. “Keep talking, keep fixing, keep moving.” We’ve been trained to believe that fast = smart.

But when I think about the best leaders I’ve worked with, none of them rush. They come across calm, measured, and thoughtful. They take their time, they don’t just bolt to the end of a conversation or decision.

Quite different to the culture of endless meetings, moving fast, ship fast, fail fast.

Maybe slowing down even when your instincts tell you to move at 100mph is the real strength.

@russellbrunson Comprehensive classification for your workforce

[MichaelCee1982 @MichaelcleaveF]

@swspurs @COYSTTID3 @Mooodolf Palace have limited drivers to sell quickly. Take time, possibility of more competition driving price up and could get a replacement before any sale at a better price. Surprised they are risking injury in the match today. They need him to go to someone if they need max value.

@WestHam_Central 🤣🤣🤣

[MichaelCee1982 @MichaelcleaveF]

@AlisaRaeWu Yes, correct

[MichaelCee1982 @MichaelcleaveF]

@AFTVMedia Good God what did you do 🙈
