Money is just a measure of society’s valuation of your personal endeavours

@Merlyn197002 @Nigel_Farage @RachelHale9920 Much as I think he will do better than a Tory or Labour leader I also don’t think speaking like a true leader implicitly means having the capability to solve problems. These 2 have been conflated for such a long time it’s beginning to undermine democracy. Substance is the key.

@DanNeidle If we always look at things from the cost lens, then we’ll probably never own a car. But if you consider the car takes you to places to do business so you can make far more money then it suddenly makes sense. We need good tax analysis but I think we oversimplify its effects.

[canaryguy @canaryguy73]

@DanNeidle I think any tax take it cut has both quantitative and qualitative effects but often we only focus on the quantitative. Those qualitative effects are often even more profound and cannot be easily measured. Also growth won’t come from a single tax cut.

[canaryguy @canaryguy73]

@DanNeidle It will come from a combination of different policies which together fulfils the goal of a healthy economy. I won’t benefit from this tax cut directly, but that extra money might be spent on something I sell. So I believe tax is more complicated than the sums we get.

@Nigel_Farage If you stick to your promise of removing #IR35, you can have my bed sheets too. I am all yours pretty much 😆

Permanent hire or contractor? Firms are starting to re-evaluate.

15% employer NI. Day-one sick pay. Day-one parental leave. Unfair dismissal exposure from six months.

The commercial case for the contractor model has not been this strong in years. Finance teams have noticed. The question is whether enough clients have.

Lottie ㅤHutchins writes for ContractorUK on what's quietly shifted in the cost of employment, and what it means for contractors in 2026.

Spring Statement 2026 — contractors still waiting.

IR35 remains untouched.
No employment status review.
No new contractor tax measures.

Experts from SG Accounting, Brookson, Mellor & Co and LITRG explain what the Spring Statement means for the contractor market.

@AndyRejoinEU @trussliz Mate get over it, we were all caught up in it. No single person is responsible it, the problems don’t go away with one person leaving the government.

@AG_AboveAllElse @linmeitalks Brown rice is the same as white rice right? Maybe we should force everyone to eat white rice.

@DibbsTux @jackmrankin You are assuming the review will lead to a change in the positive direction. It can get worse judging from the last time this party reviewed it. In fact the leader of the last review process has been promoted to VC, so I expect a double down.

[canaryguy @canaryguy73]

@KemiBadenoch I can only presume Mel Stride will be involved in the #IR35 review, in which case it can possibly get worse. At this rate I’ll take no review over a review from my former favourite party.

[canaryguy @canaryguy73]

@TooWhiteToTweet I suppose this passes as free speech as well. Enjoy the freedom.

[canaryguy @canaryguy73]

@piersmorgan Why invent a word like “woke” to label and legitimise something you hate and moan about it. If everyone stopped using it then maybe what it represents becomes irrelevant. There’s more than enough vocabulary to describe more important things in the world. Focus on it.

[canaryguy @canaryguy73]

@Jaavouvix @ContractorCalc Congratulations, you’ve just found out tax is not the centre of everything business or life for that matter.

@RichardBurgon This is shortcut to social mobility, not sure it’ll work.

@hoosiermd3 @Gonegirl2002 @TRobinsonNewEra True, they didn’t beg alright. It’s was done with guns to the head. And did anyone ask for what you call “civilisation”? I think not.

[canaryguy @canaryguy73]

@makeMePM2029 @ideiasradicais @DanielJHannan You do realise a wealth tax is for wealthy individuals right? They don’t apply to Corporations and MacDonalds is a corporate. A wealth tax won’t go after McDonald’s/Starbucks or Amazon.

[canaryguy @canaryguy73]

@IDWIW123 @ideiasradicais @DanielJHannan Who wouldn’t want someone else to pay their bills for them? Why is anyone asking that question to start with?
