  1. Andy Burnham hit the nail on the head today, the government need to make it clear what is happening with the SE, and implement it immediately.
  2. I agree, the problem we seem to have is common sense. We had the chance to try to use some and fecked it right up, I'm not one for controlling people, but if you give some people an inch they'll take a yard.
  3. Nope, in fact Boris Johnson reiterated the point today. You can go to work as long as you can abide by the 'rules' Public Healh England have laid down.
  4. Mine could do with been shorn but the barbers are on lock down.
  5. Oh well, what goes around...
  6. Why has he gone to his second home to self isolate then, I thought that was frowned upon.
  7. Stick with me mate, you won't go far wrong...
  8. I don't know, but looking at that link, if a 3.5t doesn't fall into that category it falls into the 3 month amnesty.
  9. See here. Coronavirus (COVID-19): MOTs for cars, vans and motorcycles due from 30 March 2020 - GOV.UK WWW.GOV.UK What will happen if your car, van or motorcycle’s MOT due date is on or after 30 March 2020, including what you need...
  10. The fact that she is a liar is enough for me.
  11. I wouldn't expect anything less from you, sir.
  12. How very polite, I could think of other ways of describing her.
  13. My mate is pouring the footings today on a new build he's building, he's just rang to tell me all the materials for a start on Monday are on the truck and aren't being delivered, he isn't happy.
  14. Andy Burnham has just said he's just had confirmation from Downing Street stating it is fine for people to travel to work if they can't work from home.
  15. Twitter MOBILE.TWITTER.COM
  16. What's his name?
  17. Staying at home. point 4.
  18. Me neither, I was just about to ask the same thing.
  19. Yes, there are ups and downs of SE, but wiping out 5 million SE folk because of a world wide pandemic is slightly different to the norm.
  20. I haven't held out any hope of a decent SE deal, nor am I hoping that work will pick up any time soon, so today I've taken a 3 months on the books job to see me through.
  21. That'll be most of us.
  22. I'll have a go, if I've got it miles wrong, shoot me down. Most of the bigger SE (with staff) will be able to claim the loans and grants already available, that's them sorted? So, it's down to the one man bands: take an average of each trade, your average tree surgeon earns £xxx Your average joiner earns £xxx and so on, work out an average for each trade and pay them a percentage of that average.
  23. The 'real' doctor never came back when someone started asking him difficult questions, so I'll leave that until it's proven. Do us a Favour Andy, keep out of this thread with your bickering. There are thousands of us here that are worried about what's going to happen to our livelihoods, people cancelling insurance policies, taking mortgage holidays, the list is endless. I'm not after a row and won't have one, I've much more important things to worry about ATM.
  24. Yes, the 80% of their wage up to £2.5k/month bit is correct. I would think, but I'm not sure, that if you get that deal for employees then you would be entitled to either one of the loans or grants that are available.
  25. Nothing is available yet apart from universal credit with a £20/week uplift which would pay about £95/week, but there is more to come over the next few days.
