And you clearly have no grasp of IR35, the various HMRC tests for being an employee as opposed to being self employed and the crackdown that the BBC is currently introducing re. self employed/personal service companies.

I have taken the donkey to the river. Whether it drinks or not, is up to the donkey.

No more to say on this.

More BULLSHIT !

Read so we here that upto 20% claimants of benefits are sanctioned at any one time and this means they don't appear on the figures.

Much as I despise this government, this bogus job scam is a typical recruitment agency ploy which is difficult for the government to monitor. As a self-employed person working in IT, I know full well that when I apply for a contract via a recruitment agency, I have no idea whether the job actually exists or not.

What agencies do is collect CVs if they think some job may be available in the future or alternatively they collect CVs so they can pitch for preferred supplier status to a large corporate on the basis of all these people who are on their books and have their CVs

Certain newspapers do something similar. Advertise for new staff and ask for six ideas to improve the product. If someone comes up with half a dozen crackers, a position may be found but otherwise it's just a cheap way to get ideas and a critique of the paper.
