Well, what do you know—a lot of people were abusing the furlough scheme!

Seriously doubt its any where near what "The Sun" says
The people I know who have been furloughed have done f/all work in the time they have been so and based on what the Sun says, 2/3 of them would have been. I'm sure there's been some people milking the system and in all honesty my company furloughed me to take advantage of the scheme as opposed to make me redundant but I've not done a jot of work in over 2 months since they did so. Company have been very cautious to ensure they don't break the rules and tbh I'm surprised that I've not even been called back p/time as allowed yet.

I'm lucky in a way to be in a profession which has not been effected too much by all of this - apart from a lack of ppe and guidance.
But, all the other agencies around us have been decimated in the service they can give to the public.
So many people working from home now and office space surplus to requirements being sold off as organisations realise its a much cheaper option

Good on you . I know you got an awkward time as have all 999
So many people have said the same as me, and its in the press now. No-one goes to work, sandwich shops, coffee shops, snack shops all stuffed. And Mr Big landlord, car park rip offs. No sympathy there I have to say. Just to landlords and car parks

Oh how I’d like to see the likes of NCP fall on its knees. Urban land hoarders that thinks a charge of £3 is acceptable for 15 minutes in a 5m x 3m tarmac box.
That roughly works out at a land rent of £7008 per year per square metre! For comparisons sake the average rent for prime retail in Birmingham is £1161 per year per square metre.
