The imperative

But let's face it, it's far from a normal Friday night.

To-infinitive

Truth is, though, even these people won't have a choice and where to go come tomorrow.

But what the prime minister is shutting, or the or the bars?

The chancellor is open the nation's purse strings, and he's opening them wide.

It's only nine days since his Corona virus budget.

It's only three days since he announced by a financial boost to their to the UK economy off £350 billion.

And that still wasn't enough late last night.

Late last night, he was locked in talks with business leaders with union leaders, and they were demanding.

It still went to show what they were getting out.

This afternoon, they found out the government came out and they announced the mantra.

Imagine we're going to hear much more of over the coming year.

It was always a case of when, Not if, really.

It's still few too many, and so today the inevitable, but on a scale far greater than most expected following agreement between a.

Ll the four nations of the United Kingdom All the devolved administrations, we are collectively telling telling cafes, pubs, bars on dhe restaurants too close tonight as soon as they reasonably can and not to open tomorrow.

Nightclubs, theaters, Jim's leisure centres Also shutting down on the prime minister warned there should be no last Harar Listening to what I have just said, some people may, of course, be tempted to go out tonight and I say to you, Please don't.

But the tradeoff for the health of the nation so far has been trade itself and thousands of companies air staring into the abyss, even ones that have stood strong for four generations.

I'm guessing that's normally quite a big one for you.

The empty restaurant, the untouched keys, The beds that don't need to be made can only last so long.

We've got people have been here 30 years, 30 years.

Are you looking at having to let them go?

But in answer to the tea spilled all over the nation.

Today came a raft of financial measures from a fledgling chancellor on an unprecedented scale.

It began this afternoon by detail ing his Corona virus job retention scheme.

Any employer in the country, small or large, charitable or non profit will be eligible for the scheme.

Employers will be able to contact HMRC for a grant to cover most of the wages of people who are not working but are furloughed and kept on payroll rather than being laid off.

Government grants will cover 80% of the salary of retained workers, up to a total of £2500 a month.

I am placing no limit on the amount of funding available for the scheme.

I'm deferring the next quarter of E 80 payments.

That means no business will pay n a V a t from now until the end of June, and you will have until the end of the financial year to repay those bills.

That is, a direct injection of over £30 billion off cash to business is equivalent to one and 1/2 percent of GDP to strengthen the safety net.

I'm increasing today the universal credit standard allowance for the next 12 months by £1000 a year on for the self employed, it was announced.

Self assessment payment will be deferred until 2021.

A bailout often limited size in Worthing Unparalleled relief.

I didn't think it would be anywhere near that figure.

We can keep people on people who've been here for years, people who haven't done anything wrong, but I wouldn't have a job.

The doors here will soon be closing, but safe in the knowledge that one stuff will be paid to.

The prime minister may have got a grip now on social distancing of pubs, clubs and restaurants at supermarkets.

There is still much to do for today, though it was future queues outside job centres.

The government was fighting not present ones outside shops, but the real verdict is still out.

These announcements at a time, specifically a five o'clock so they can't affect the stock market is no instant shop.

We'll find out from that on Monday morning.

We have had some reaction, though, from the Labour Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell.

He said that these pledges don't go far enough.

The c B I said this Alema package for business people and jobs.

If they failed to stimulate the economy, just what will one last hope they before leaving for this evening, See if markets for now they are trying to recruit 16,000 people to cope with the mastermind they've seen over the last few days.

Michael Smith, who leaves a business organization off over 500 pubs, restaurants and shops in South London on Josh Hardy, is the deputy director general off the Confederation off British industry.

First of all, how far do these measures go to helping the people you work with?

I think businesses are looking at these missions as one word that they used today was radical that were very radical, very radical approach.

So the problem other businesses are saying that a good government in a really good job.

They were looking at the car makers, having listened and went away changed.

So there's a general air of satisfaction.

But in your organization's how many people are employees and therefore covered by these measures announced tonight?

And how many will be more casual workers who may just be laid off, You know, in bricks that we've got a lot of pubs and clubs and there?

Yes, there are lots of casual employees, but people were on us appear widely stuff.

So people who are very, very emotional last week about having it off.

But this is a big guarantee for everybody.

Because although we're in the midst of the problem, people also think you know what happens at the end of this.

How do we How do we re like the flame and get going again?

So people want to keep trusted a trusted stuff.

Start that being with them for 2030 years, you know the routine.

I don't want to be starting again from scratch.

Just what do you make of this package off measures announced tonight.
