"For those who believe there is only one package of support that they do not qualify for it is worth noting, and fully exploring, there are many different types of direct and in-direct support that has been introduced, which if considered carefully will help. Sadly many routes will lead to no assistance " | |||

"When Boris was asked what measures were put in place to stop profiteering he said he hoped that wasn't happening. Is that a response? Now we have banks undermining the intentions of the government to the detriment of the country and their punishment is.... Nothing." As if Boris didn't let banks doing as such on purpose | |||

They are free and can help. (check your local LEP) There is more than one option available to businesses - use as many of them as you can to ease the current burden. | |||

"The banks are behaving disgusting. They need their arses kicked." Initially yes, but there has been some adjustments by the chancellor and new instructions to the banks which should now allow business owners to feel more confident about making use of what is available. I do think you cant just rely on a one prong strategy to deal with current issues... there are lots of support mechanisms being opened up, and the best chance to get through this is to utilise all or as many as possible. | |||
