Provide a new financial scheme for newly self-employed people.
We want parliament to provide financial aid in a similar way to the Self Employed Income Support scheme, to help NEW self employed people while they are unable to work during the isolation period.
It’s proven fact that your first year in business your at your most financially vulnerable. We need more support for this, you can’t leave the vulnerable behind when it’s cost us so much to get us to where we are now. There are many ways we can prove we aren’t fraudulently applying for the scheme, such as providing bank statements from card payments or contacting accountants to produce a mini tax return.
