The government have extended the furlough worker support scheme, but it disadvantages and discriminates against those who have just changed jobs, started a new job or are due to start a new job in the very near future. This needs to be changed to be inclusive.

The UK government have condemned those who have taken upon themselves to find financial security, by securing new employment to financial ruin, by excluding them from the furlough scheme. This will result in huge numbers of unemployment, universal credit claims, poverty and homelessness. We implore the UK government to reassess the cut off date of 30 October 2020 for the furlough scheme, to include those who have recently gained new employment.
