I'm on a Wetherspoons chat group and we are being paid our contracted minimum hours, in my case 7 while I normally do 16-18 and at 80% so I'll be *out of pocket by ~£63p/week. 

You could well be right.

*fully offset by the amount of fuel I'm not putting in my car.

which is now cheaper than a long time

Topshop owner in talks to secure £30m lifeline

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-54950041

Scratting around for 30m.

15 years ago- 

The billionaire revealed a £1.3bn payout yesterday as he unveiled Arcadia's annual results. Mr Green owns 92% of the business and will therefore receive £1.17bn. The balance will go to the banking group HBOS, which bankrolled his purchase of the business for £850m three years ago and owns 8% of the shares.

The cash will be coming from a seven and a half year loan to Arcadia. "It is senior debt, not rinky-dinky funny money. It is plain vanilla, not chocolate or raspberry," said the tycoon, who also owns Bhs. "It is affordable and it is not over-aggressive. It leaves the business with plenty of opportunities to grow.

Arcadia Group is on the verge of becoming the latest Covid pandemic-induced high street causality, with reports suggesting it is about to go into administration – a move that could put 15,000 jobs at risk.

According to Sky News, Green’s retail empire is preparing to appoint administrators from Deloitte as early as next week, after talks with a number of lenders about an emergency £30 million loan hit a dead end.

 

1.3bln pulled out.

Now cant 'afford' a 30m loan.

God, blast from the past

Just been of radio, telling how to make Scotland richer.

https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/6926133/sir-tom-hunter-scotland-must-grow-economy-opinion/

All this twat did was borrow loads from the Scottish bank, take money out, then stand back as it all fell down.

I thought he was at home counting the English tax payers bail out money.
