Please can we help push this petition forward so that it gets the attention needed. So many self employed workers could face genuinely hard times should this #coronavirus #covid19 situation worsen.

Without the offering off statutory sick pay #ssp (or something similar) being available to those who are self employed, it could have very serious ramifications to those who are already struggling financially and facing an uphill battle. Let's use a social media platform for something that could actually help the masses, Instead of it being used irresponsibly as a "soap box" for trolls https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/300336
signed. can you imagine how manic the year would be if they did close sites, i read on the bellway site theyre following guidelines but could potentially close sites for 3 months. Thats insane
have you not seen the proposed bill that went through the commons?https://www.personneltoday.com/hr/statutory-self-employment-pay-coronavirus/ 80% of your declared profits i beleive capped at £2917 a month
That's not going to happen, you watch...after today's announcement there is going to be a massive uproar I'm guessing

Not sure i can claim it either way anyway as my wifes american and on a visa im the sponsor of which i forefit if i claim any benefit
