I agree with this. I've done both too - which I believe I've mentioned before. There are pressures associated with running organisations which are often missed. Not being able to walk out and go to another job when things go wrong is one of them. Having to put up whatever you own as collateral to ensure you have the cashflow to pay people for the months before your invoice gets paid is another (and yes, that happens even if you run a limited company - if the company doesn't have it, the directors have to provide it). There are many more.
Sounds like it will be an interesting meeting you're arranging Mr Host, good luck. Personally, I'll be running around the country in my temporary job, getting paid pretty much the same as I have been for the last 10 years. I'm not sure how I'd fit into any union negotiaition......
