Today I’ve had conversations with people in senior positions in small, medium and very large businesses and some of them are preparing to take pretty drastic action. What the government decides over the next handful of days will have huge consequences for the economy. Massive job losses and businesses folding is just round the corner. We need measures to allow companies to cover payroll without laying off staff, the loans won’t be good enough if this lasts for any amount of time. Good first step but it’s going to require more if we want to avoid some massive problems.
