@RishiSunak Something needs to be done ASAP we don’t have time to be waiting for something to be announced and then waiting AGAIN for it to be put in place. This is peoples lives. The bills still need to be paid and income has vanished. What do we do?
The government's measures would leave five million self-employed and gig economy workers with just £94.25 a week sick pay.
This is simply not enough.
Those without a fixed wage must not be left to suffer.
Freelancers. Gig economy workers. The self-employed. Why are the government paying 80% of everyone else's wages but not theirs? It is simply not fair and not good enough.
@thecarolemalone Latest announcement doesn’t help self employed though! What about us? We pay taxes too but are left with next to nothing. I have bills and a mortgage to pay.
