F****** Chancellor

Really loving my new employer. I just had to pay for a CHAPS transfer to ensure that I get paid on my payday. On top of that I have to pay GBP100/month to get paid at all.

Of course I shouldn't be taking it out on Gordon Brown seeing as he's just defaulted on his promise to help the UKs poorest children and is no doubt still trying to find a way to finance the UK's defence budget hike to GBP33.6 billion for 2006-07. Quite a tough bit of accounting.

Still, I guess I'm being stung by IR35 which after all was one of the seeds planted under Thatcher (I seem to remember in a kind of distant, non-accurate sort of hazy way...)
