I’ve not a clue in this, but could this be a win-win situation...self employed people get the help they need and the govt gets everyone to be up to date on their tax returns?

Do immune systems work like that?

My understanding is that it's a novel virus that human immune systems have no idea how to fight off.

What do we make of the chancellor's decision here?

I'm not self-employed so I've not paid too much attention but this guy had been getting a lot of praise recently. Seems a bit fake-smiley for my liking but I'll wait and see how it all pans out.

80% of their taxable income averaged over 3 years is as fair as you can get. 

The gray area is people keeping on working but claim it anyway.

Please don't clap. It's already embarrassing enough with all the free food and other stuff being delivered. We're lucky enough to have secure jobs and keep getting paid. I'd prefer the food and donations to go to those who are actually needing it.

Looks not bad, I've no idea what I'm due as there has been down time in there as well, no doubt it will count against me but what can the guy do, he can't sit down and do a bespoke deal for everybody. 

Anything that tops my bank account up will be greatly appreciated.

Russian Warships have been cutting about the North Sea and English Channel over the last couple of days...

Testing our reactions,  they've been doing it for decades.

They do it with aircraft too.

He’s a #Torycunt.  HTH.

Would have preferred him to just state the facts rather than constantly repeating how 'generous' he is.

You’re very ungrateful.  He is being very generous with our money.

yeah decent. I'm at home on full pay but my self employed wife has no income as her jobs have all ceased and she has too much in the bank to get UC.

I suspect folk won't say Sunak is so great when he's back on the telly next year saying everyone has to work till they're 75 to pay for this.

I hope he makes you all work until 80, it won't affect me.

I’d love for the Tories to try to raise the state pension age yet again on the back of this.  They will get crucified.

But would they? There were no big street dems when they did it before. (unless I missed it, and I might have)

Gig deal workers will be grateful for your support in these difficult times.
