If it’s based off 3 years I’m screwed as I’ve only been self employed for 10 months  :'(

I'm guessing here mate but trying to think a worse case scenario for those in your situation. If would have to be the minimum Universal Credit you would get , or for higher maybe if you provide some books to back up a claim for greater. Think positive, they did say no one would be left behind or out of pocket.

I’ve only been self employed for 12 months also. There’s also 1m people that are self employed now that weren’t 12 months ago. These are the kind of details that they will have been ironing out over the last week.

I’m hoping for the best but expecting the worse. I don’t think there will be anything for domestic window cleaners though, as they want and encourage  us to carry on working in the community. This has been made quite clear imo.
This is another problem when it comes to sorting self employed help and why it will take longer. What if the window cleaner or similar tradesmen needs to stay at home as the other half is high risk or at the moment schools forced to close and someone needs to look after the kids etc. Its a tough one for the government.
It's going to be a hard one, p1.
If I can go to work, that'd be good and my lad has a place in school. But they're are only looking after them; no proper teaching. He came from school the other day and all his assigned work was wrong. We had to do it again.
I don't want his education to suffer just so I can go to work. It's only two or three days a week though, if that.
Bloody teachers .

I don’t reckon it’ll be enough to jump up and down about what some people think is enough to live on spend that on feeding the cats and dogs 🐕 lol,I don’t think it will be anywhere near the 2500 mark.

Sorry I mean if you were supposedly entitled to that amount being the limit,how much will that cost helping out 5000000 self employed.
No wonder he looked like he’d messed himself when self employed was mentioned.

Just stay at home and live off your missis.

Bloody teachers .

I spoke to a fell running teacher on Saturday.  He said he was off till Autumn; he smiled and said it was "surreal", being off for six/seven months on full pay.

I said won't you take at turn looking after key worker's kids?  And he said no, because he teaches at a university.

I said "Brilliant!" and his smile turned into a massive grin.

He's loving it.

I’d hate being off that long you can’t go anywhere there’s only so many jobs you can do round the house,no thanks I’d rather be working he will just be another fat teacher when he goes back.

well ive no idea where i stand  ???

my business is Ltd, im a director which technically makes me an officer ......doesnt seem i fit into  either self employed or an employee as i dont have an employment contract

will be interesting to see how this pans out over the next month or so
Also from my accountants email
Directors of limited companies are not self-employed. There is still no information whether they will be counted as employees for the purpose of the 80% funding that will be available, however it is likely they will be excluded unless there is a contract of employment that has been in place for some time.

Is there much demand for fell running teachers?

Read my previous posts and you'll see I've never had my hopes up or expected anything from them. I'm quit happy to go to work I'm just choosing not to this week,  for other reasons.

I see what you did there.  ;D

But actually, I do the photography for Elements Active and Ruth (the fell running teacher) teaches women how to do fell running.  Her courses are always fully booked.

So yes. ;D

C’mon Griff give the teachers a break........my wife’s a teacher😆 I think she gets a little bit peeved when she hears how much us window cleaners earn for what are relatively part time hours compared to hers, or it could be that she had to spend 4 years at Uni racking up debt, whilst we can learn our job in ........5 minutes🤪

University is really difficult; trying to fit the studies in-between all the drinking, partying, sex and drugs.

Terrible isn't it?

Teaching isn't easy though; I wouldn't want to do it.  Kids are 'orrible things.

His teachers, KS.
I think there were two teachers in and a few assistants. My son asked one of the teachers, the head, about some algebra and he said 'oh, I don't know, it's years since I've done that'.
That was the deal though. They're there just to look after them.
