That’s interesting. Which portal are you using to apply out of interest?

You know, seeing as you can’t apply until the end of April at earliest.

You’re a bullshitter

Nooe we’ve looked at it and we know exactly what the restrictions are and we are still paying laid off workers and have no worries whatsoever there will be a problem.

You on the other hand say you’ve got first hand experience, claim it’s a loan and not a grant (utter bullshit) say it’s going to be evaluated on cash flow criteria (my accountant laughed when I showed him that and said the HMRC criteria is clear for all to
See) and I’m sure having said you have experience then said you are working from home. The scheme I have no doubt will be paid and many companies have already furloughed staff including very big ones

I have furloughed staff and we will be getting money as the staff meet the criteria. Many staff have been furloughed across the country - your constant nonsense is trying to scare monger people into believing they are getting know money.

Claims you have made;

The scheme is a loan. It a grant - lie
The scheme is going to be evaluated by rules not yet declared by the government - lie
you have personal experience of the scheme - lie as you’ve been droning on about working from home

JLR are furloughing hourly paid and a small amount of staff on Monday. So they cannot work. Don’t tell me they are bullshitting

he’s lying. The application portal will not be live until at least the end of April, yet he said he’s already made claims. He’s bullshitting, the rest is just nonsense as he knows he’s badly rumbled

https://www.gov.uk/guidance/claim-for-wage-costs-through-the-coronavirus-job-retention-scheme


check the bottom of page one: “The online service you’ll use to claim is not available yet. We expect it to be available by the end of April 2020.”

I have no idea who you’re talking about.

I am calling you a big bullshitter because you said you’d already claimed when it’s impossible. So I’ll say it again- you’re a bullshitter. I don’t think any more needs to be said really.

I know people have been furloughed. I am one of them.

You said that you and other people have applied for furlough which is not physically possible until 20th April.

Total bullshit. It's there in black and white for all to see.

well look- I’m gonna be honest, I don’t really feel any joy in outing that particular piece of bullshit when the whole world is in a bloody mess- he’s got his views & told a porky but we’ve all done it, and that’s it. Time to move on, I was planning on no aggro today

I’m sure what grendel meant was that many people have been placed on furlough- that’s correct. But you can’t claim yet and the risk is that you may have lots of people furloughed then not be accepted, as we are seeing with the loans. And it will be thoroughly audited. Just a mistake and I’m actually boring myself even talking about it, so time for something else- where’s Coventrian when you need him

What a sad fucker. I know we’re in lockdown and people are bored but how lonely must you be to send a link to your accountant to a football forum you live an imaginary life on. Thinking about it it was probably an imaginary accountant anyway to go with the imaginary application to a portal that’s not yet up and running. In the words of Mr T “I pity the fool”.

At the risk of being told I’m talking sanctimonious twaddle again, it’s because under these circumstances we realise that the life we normally lead is fucked up and doesn’t need to be that way, and we need to change the way we live.

It was a very rare beautiful day yesterday- was able to have a very restricted Easter egg hunt in the garden, went for a bike ride and the kids got the ‘slip and slide’ out- after a while they convinced me to have a go but sneakily chucked a load of fairy liquid on it when I wasn’t watching, so I ended up flying down it, almost took out a fence panel and ended up with 2 bloody knees and a sore elbow.. obviously everyone else though that was a great laugh and the video was sent to all & sundry Today though? Complete washout, it’s pouring down, about 10 degrees and a bit depressing really!

Soon as lockdown ends to some degree I want to come over, I can work from there anyway and I could do a bit more to help with parents’ shopping etc and would be great to leave the Irish permanently grey weather behind for a while...

Good numbers today, even accounting for the suppressed weekend. Wait until Wednesdays numbers this week, here’s hoping we don’t break 1000, then we’ll probably have hit a peak for now.

I just think if everyone starts making meals for their neighbour now then we aren't helping to control the spread of the virus. It's a well intentioned thing, but just not the right time for it.

Oh yeah I agree with that, also it’s all getting a bit over the top. People should just be a bit more considerate in general, there’s no need to be going around with Tupperware boxes of half eaten stuffing to show you’re a ‘good person’

He's had a productive 4 days but a suppressed report from yesterday was nothing to do with him?
You can't have it both the ways.
Any way, I'll say no more but e mail transcripts from the report have started leaking on line.
He's got a job on his hands with this. Watch this space. Either way, music to Tory ears.
