Help those who lost their job and can't get new job because of lock down.
I rent privately. I will run out of money soon and become homeless. The lock down has meant nobody is hiring and I was very close to securing a new job. The lock down is going to ruin my life and many others if the lock down is not ended in the next couple of weeks.
Provisions of being made for people who have a mortgage, including private landlords and those currently employed but nothing had been offered for the unemployed. I need to get a job and the lock down needs to end so businesses hire again. You're postponing impact of need foe hospital ICU's but what about the millions healthy that are capable of getting a job but can't because of government lock down and a persons ability to survive.
