Abstract: Let $G$ be a semigroup of rational functions of degree at least two, under composition of functions. Suppose that $G$ contains two polynomials with non-equal Julia sets. We prove that the smallest closed subset of the Riemann sphere which contains at least three points and is completely invariant under each element of $G$, is the sphere itself.
