I missed out by literally one day.
BTW Black Hackney cabs London Cab/Taxi Company, are not safe if they do not receive that Mot every 6 months, every enforcement officer in the country knows this is true and is caused by a bad design of the safety Cab + engine design.
Do not use these cabs while out and about to be safe, use any Mercedes or Ford etc… Refuse all London designs.

Rishi Sunak says self-employed people facing financial difficulties will be able to have 80% of their monthly wages covered by the government.
He says this will be calculated using average monthly profits over last three financial years.
He says support will be capped at £2,500 per month, and will initially last three months.
Mr Sunak says the scheme will only be open to those who are already self-employed and have a self-assessment tax return for 2019.
It will apply to those with trading profits up to £50,000 a year, he adds.
He says 95% of those who are majority self-employed will benefit.
He says he hopes people will be able to “access” the scheme “no later than June”.
My startup (I’ll call it that) hasn’t made a profit yet and I’ve haven’t taken a salary for a few years. My business is built around mass participation events and everything has been cancelled.
So fucked.
sorry ignore I misread your post
Watching Question Time…
waaf - Tories trying to soft-soap it but we’re not doing anywhere near enough
I don’t want to be alarmist but the govt obfuscating the death figures and clearing out the Excel centre are pretty chilling signs. God I hope this isn’t as ugly as it feels.

Paid up for another week myself, £115.00 for the piper so I can make around double that.
At 8pm I was like why so many people coming out then the clapping happens and I realise… Good showing here tbh.
Healthcare workers 
We have the whole of the NHS and network rail and council jobs + all the supermarkets and healthcare providers outwith the NHS… Other companies are in dire straits.
I think this maybe my last week tbh and I’ll let my cousin do all the hours, we share a car and he’s not doing well atm… He’s day shift though.
We’ll work something out between us so he can earn as he has property to pay for.
I’m averaging around 15 jobs a day 10 credits and some cash jobs.

Well worth a watch. The consequence for electing a mini-Trump.

Clapping for the NHS while giving the man who wants to dismantle it an 80 seat majority. Such a weird country.

This is insane, there’s loads of people who can move between PAYE and self-employed for exactly the same sort of reason as yourself. I know people in development who do it, a good mate is in a completely different field and does similar. To be fair the same gaps might exist in what’s been done here given businesses/SE get help based on the gap between March this year and last, but what a fucking mess. Sorry.
