guys
having worked as "a contractor" ie self employed....for ONE company (this is the key) in the past, HMRC judged that i was not self employed as i only worked for one company and did not control my working practice etc....they considered me to be an employee,and to be honest they were right.
They then went after me and the employer,i sorted it, they resisted and after many years due to resisting, the judgement came in against them(found lots of other things going on) to the tune of many millions and the main man went to prison
I think its not if but when they come knocking regarding the brookfield senario
