Rishi Sunak has written off £4.3 billion in fraudulent covid loans. You can bet this government wouldn’t be so casual if it was benefit claims.
@Bill_Esterson Where people are too paranoid to work, too paranoid not to work, one error away from Homelessness, with no help from call centres, & seemingly no way out of poverty due to Economy Externalizes becoming too intractable for our outdated social arrangement. Yeh. I get it.
@Bill_Esterson I am assuming anyone in receipt of such loans will be pursued by way of a criminal prosecution?
@Bill_Esterson But he will make those genuine SMEs who cannot afford to repay suffer the nightmare many of them are now going through, non-stop phone calls and nasty letters.
@Bill_Esterson @angiestephens The CONservatives are clearly not the party of fiscal responsibility. What's happened to the £37bn test and trace budget especially as we're no longer testing to the extent required?
@Bill_Esterson @catherinemginn How many hungry children would that amount feed?
@Bill_Esterson @tshep42 Wow, “the party of law and order”?!
@Bill_Esterson @hullfair Absolutely not. Even appealing against an unfair or counterintuitive deduction is impossible.
