In the UK you can start your own company as a sole trader. That way you 
can get tax breaks. (I won’t say what but it is all legal above board 
and not offshore.) And I just found out last week from my accountant 
that there is a tax scheme where you can pay a flat rate of VAT (sales 
tax). So if your turnover is less than GBP 150000 you charge 20% to the 
client or agency and pay back 14.5% to the Inland Revenue and you don’t 
have to do much paperwork. :-)
