    I genuinely feel sick to the stomach watching that. At least three questions on newstarters and he ignored two but the third answer suggests fuck all will change.

    I'm in a whole world of trouble if that's the case. It's so sad.

    Extending the furlough scheme until October is not remotely consistent with the provisional dates on the road map.

    There is no plan to get out of this, we are truly fucked.

    Free monies till October, I can absolutely see no reason how that will have any detrimental impact on the lives of those it's meant to protect. Fucking hell, the lols when these cunts get their comeuppance and are crying about the state of their lives for the next decade for these decisions.

    Well, this is another thing that makes no sense to me. Just myself personally, I pay more in tax and NI each month than I am even eligible for with Universal Credit so surely keeping as many people in work as possible ensures that when we do come to repay this back then we all are.

    It's not right that people miss out now but equally it's not right that those who have benefited will then get screwed later down the line by supporting millions of unemployed, if of course they don't end up unemployed themselves.

    Actually, and having just read past the headline, if they're asking employers to share the cost come August that's when it effectively ends.

    Unless you're being sarcastic, kids are actually super spreaders because they're asymptomatic.

    I heard this alluded to yesterday, by our scientific experts and it set my bullshit detector racing. What is this claim actually based on?

    Evidence is therefore emerging that children could be significantly less likely to become infected than adults. On the other hand, children could have a more transient upper respiratory infection with minimal viral shedding, or the less likely scenario of showing minimal symptoms despite significant viral shedding. A further key question is the ability of infected children to spread SARS-CoV-2. A collection of international family clusters found that children were not likely to be the index case in households, only being responsible for around 10% of clusters.9 Data from Guangzhou have supported this, finding an even lower rate of children as index cases in households at 5%.8 A case study of a cluster in the French Alps included a child with COVID-19 who failed to transmit it to any other person, despite exposure to more than a hundred children in different schools and a ski resort.10 In New South Wales, Australia none of 735 students and 128 staff contracted COVID-19 from nine child and nine adult initial school cases despite close contact.11 In The Netherlands, separate data from primary care and household studies suggests SARS-CoV-2 is mainly spread between adults and from adult family members to children.12

    If the plan comes to fruition, most staff will need to be in every day as each classroom will be being used.

    Is there anyone else here for whom absolutely nothing has changed at any point, work-wise?

    I might have lost all my colleagues but for me personally, aside from the increased workload, almost nothing has changed. Same commute, same hours, same desk, same everything.

    The last date change made me applicable for furlough pay which the company has agreed. Peak bastard.

    You need to stop looking at it like that. They aren't bastards purely because they were fortunate enough to be entitled to be eligible and it's all very well sitting back and enjoying your summer thinking life is gravy but I can imagine a huge portion of those furloughed are still spending it on bills and general living expenses so it's not like they are gaining, they are still losing 20% of their usual income and what many won't realise at the moment is when the scheme ends, they might be well and truly fucked.

    Those who got furloughed by former employers won't have jobs as those jobs technically don't even exist now, those furloughed with current employers don't know if they'll have a job to go back to, even those who do might find that hours are reduced, business reduced etc so that 80% furlough might be even less by time they come off it and start working. After today also with the news that employers will be asked to contribute after July...that's going to lead to layoffs.

    I legit can't see too many laughing by time this is done.

    Not much aside from hours/location. I've been referred to as a Creative Director multiple times externally which would be a 100k pay-bump so that's going on the performance review.

    Be surprised if the 20% cut isn't offset by the savings of not having to go to work but your general point is valid.

    Even if it would put my job at risk, as in whether or not they’d even want me back in five months, I feel like I’d be absolutely buzzing to be told I’m furloughed til October.

    I suppose that’s easy to say when I’m currently working at about 25% my usual capacity and getting paid full whack while mostly watching This Morning, Wheeler Dealers and Peppa Pig.

    Not having to check emails and be on video calls would be good right now though. I keep thinking I could use some holidays and have a proper break but I know come December or whatever, if everything’s back to normal and I’ve already used my holidays when I’m practically on holiday anyway, I’d regret it.

    If you were able to prove that he had it, you could pursue “attempted xxx.” I imagine that the offence is less that you transmitted it, but that you knowingly attempted to.

    What’s your scheme over there then? 80% of your wages (flat basic I assume)? That’s not bad at all.

    I think it's 80% with a limit of £2,500 a month.

    It's not 80% of basic its 80% of your average pay from the same month last year.
