BBC News: Reports " The UK scheme to pay wages of workers on leave because of coronavirus will be extended to October, Chancellor Rishi Sunak has said. "
Lets Get Real:
The Chancellor has to be careful, bosses and the workforce should not get settled with the idea that the Government pays the wages of workers, while the bosses get away with just paying 20% if they want too. The Government in August and September should start to phase out the furlough scheme, the Government cannot afford it long term. The UK will have to live with having COVID - 19 in our mists for a long time, in less a vaccine can be found in the very near future. If business leaders and trade unions are happy with the news, then there must be something wrong, the UK can not turn in to the USSR or North Korea. There will be a COLD DAY when economic reality has to bite, and bite hard, than means getting the UK workforce off their backsides and back to work, that means public transport going at 100%. That day is coming, and the British public better get around to accepting that reality.
