Guess not....... No gold standard

 

How do I know like?

 

Just beat me to it

 

Right or nah?

 

nah .

 

He’s coming at it from the wrong angle imo, so his criticism is wrong.

The scheme being extended is a good thing, and the fact it’ll include the ability to get some staff part time in line with demand, is also the right thing to do.

 

Announced earlier, 80% until end of October

I thought it was 80% til July then 60%? Until October.

 

Nope, as is.

Edit..........as far as i can see.

 

Yep the Gov are saying employers have to make up the balance to 80% .

Edit : umm now seems unclear just employers will have to contribute so **** knows

 

Tbh the government have done way more than I thought they would do to make it possible for employers not to sack staff.
It is the reason that millions have not been left dead in the water. Some countries such as India and America have seen unbelievable amounts of staff lose their jobs.
For all the criticism they deserve I think this is the wrong thing to have a did at personally.

 

Yeh this is what I heard.

So how they supposed to do that if they've been closed for weeks?

8bn so far right? How much was the rbs bail out?

 

Sky now changed the page and are now saying 80% until end of July then 60% until end of October with employers expected to make up the other 20%

 

see my edit .
Thats the thing though the Govt has to start to rowback some of these schemes simply due to financial realities .

 

According to a guardian article i just found its costing 14 billion a month

 

So 8bn so far on furlough.

45.5bn to bail out RBS.

Seems about right, don't forget to vote again Yeh guise

 

think the confusion was as they were saying staff would still get 80% of their wages without detailing employers contribution .

 

The number I keep seeing is 8bn so far.

14bn a month and its easier to pay 60% I suppose.

 

don't think the net cost was that tbf .

 

Of?
