I'm sure it's been mentioned in here a lot already but having just watched the daily government briefing I'm just absoloutely exasperated at no mention of financial assistance to small businesses/sole traders.
I've taken all the correct action to sign up to universal credit and spent over 6 hours in the past 2 days on the phone attempting to speak to someone to complete my application, only to be cut off.
I'm so frustrated, frustrated for myself and for every other self employed person who has been left behind. I am a sole traders and I know small businesses are also suffering and not having any guidance how to cover rent and pay staff so equally worry for them.
I know potentially the government may be 'doing all they can' but I'm drowning out here and it's really starting to become a panic. So many people have no money coming in and plenty going out.
Just needed to have a rant somewhere Sad
