Q: Many of us accepted or started jobs after the 28th Feb, we have been left high and dry, my new employer wants to furlough me but canโt!
Allow us to present evidence we had a job offer or job starting!
Many of us face financial ruin.

A:
@JeremyVineOn5 Wife started a new job on 06/03, was paid on 31/03 and has now been furloughed with no pay. Contacted previous employer who was not interested; "Not our problem" #newstarterfurlough
Rishi Sunak: Review the government furlough scheme to include workers who started their job this month - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/eSOvIRAztX via @UKChange
NEW: Full time workers are being sacked or left without pay because they started new jobs in the last month so aren't eligible for the govt #COVID19 retention scheme #newstarterfurlough ๐
