So where is the help for the self employed and renters?

[FenlandBoing]

Working within the community, care workers, working in hospitality, freelance chef's, painters, decorators, construction staff, entertainers, child minders, many in the creative sector, window cleaners, gardeners, youth workers etc etc. Clients are not going to book most of these people and soon I suspect they won't be able to move freely as we shall be in lockdown to a lesser or greater extent. You talk nonsense to try and pretend that most freelancers, zero hour employee's have contracts that mean their clients have to pay even if they don't / can't do the work or that they can do their job via a laptop. The subject dominated Prime Ministers Questions so don't be so disingenuous to suggests this isn't something that needs addressing. 

I hope it will be and to be fair to the government and the opposition parties they seem to have acknowledged the problem and are working together (fingers crossed) to mean those people don't become victims of a situation completely out of their control.

You said "Most freelancers clients will not be paying them because they won’t know if they can."

For care workers and construction staff that's simply bollocks. For discretionary services - particularly personal services I'll admit you have a point, but that's always been the most precarious end of employment - and I don't consider a window cleaner or a gardener or an entertainer to be 'freelance' in the generally accepted sense of the word.

yes the huge majority of care workers are on contracts and will be needed more than  ever  - not less. I employ 30 staff in this sector and not one is losing their job!
