Apparently millions of people in this country are receiving furlough payments, and the taxpayers (including me) will have to eventually foot the bill one way or another. Yet no member of my family has received a penny from this.
I wonder just how many of these recipients have moaned about "benefit scroungers" in the past? Yet these furloughers are happy to receive far more than anybody on benefits ever got.
The same goes for the Government. It's ok to pour billions of pounds into the economy for furlough payments, and yet we've been told for the last 10 years that the benefits bill is too high and needs cutting.
And you know what's going to happen in the future. Public sector pay freeze for the next 30 years. As the mantra in Animal Farm says - private sector good, public sector bad. Hypocrisy and double standards.
But what else can you expect from this Government and their supporters ?
