• Allow ALL small businesses access to the Small Business Coronavirus Grant Scheme
    Why should small businesses (limited companies) operating from a residential address not qualify for the Coronavirus grant scheme? Just because we do not trade from a business property (paying business rates or claiming small business rate relief), we do not qualify for anything other than a loan - putting us further into long-term debt. According to the latest statistics from the House of Commons Business Statistics, there were around 2 million limited companies operating in the UK in 2019. Of these 2 million actively trading companies, around 990,000 were employers, whereas 891,000 companies were not. Therefore, just over half of limited companies are employers and just under a half are one-man-band businesses (more thank likely trading from home). The Government's "Small Business Coronavirus Grant Scheme" has let down these businesses simply because they trade from home. All I am asking is that these businesses be given access to the same grants system as the other businesses that trade from a property that is paying business rates (or receiving small business rates relief). Smaller businesses like ours do not have the reserves of our much larger counterparts and simply cannot afford to go three weeks (let alone another three) without income. To us, this isn't just a business, this our livelihood, this is how we feed our families.

  • Universal credit advance repayments
    This is important to me as I do not want to see me or my family struggle anymore, nor anyone else. This is affecting us massively and I can assure you this is probably affecting a lot of other households.

  • Tax Free Pay for Keyworkers
    Many keyworkers are paid poorly but provide essential services that keep the country going. This has been highlighted with the recent Coronavirus outbreak. Many of us turn up for work day in day out even without adequate PPE, so that the population is provided with care, food, transport, security among other services needed. We are now told we are valued but at the moment they are just words. When hopefully things get back to normal we will go back to being taken for granted. Show us how much we are actually valued.

  • Helping out families of deceased front line workers
    These families will suffer because their loved one stood on the frontline of the pandemic to protect the whole country. They should have their financial worries taken care of, by us, not bear this burden alone. They have made a huge sacrifice for all of us. We should ensure that they do not have to make further sacrifices.
