Extend the Self Employed Income Support Scheme
Extend the Self Employed Income Support Scheme. This may be done on a sector by sector basis if necessary, as some sectors are much more greatly affected by the government's Coronavirus related advice than others.
It is unfair that the government have continued to advise people against using many services offered by the self employed, effectively removing the self employed people's income, but have not offered them any further compensation.
