Credit Where Due!

I understand Mick, one size doesn’t fit all.

As I understand it the ‘up to 80%’ scheme is based on a grant being available to employers although I’m yet to follow it up to the letter. I’m waiting for the full picture to emerge first, being self employed I’m also keen to see what Whitehall are working on, an announcement was expected early this week but nothing has emerged yet. I only have one lad on PAYE, the rest are subbies, obviously our situations are very different. Even so, my point is, too many people are threatening the rest of us because they’re being blase’.

Your last sentence sums this up Minn.

Many employers are doing the right things like myself but then you get 20 odd West Midland morons having a barbecue and street party today to celebrate the Corona Holiday😫


I’ve lambasted one of my lads at work who told me he was off to Galashiels this weekend to see a mate and that it’d be alright because his mate is rural and he doesn’t go out much!

F king moron......totally clueless as to the fact he could be taking the virus northwards and spreading it at every petrol station and in a rural community.

He’s 27 and went to school with my son.....non of this generation had schooling in moral responsibility and they just don’t get it!

I think the government will announce a scheme for self employed tomorrow along the 80% basis.

As long as you’ve got a year or twos books you’ll get £2500 a month which is a start.

I only pay myself £8700 in “wages” so I’m f hooked🤭

The issue is around how is the money going to get to people on the 80% scheme and when!?
