@RishiSunak a sensible question if I may to follow up on your statement in Parliament today. Where did you get your figures from please? 230,000 saved from 320,000 makes no sense based on recent ONS & HM Treasury figures. An explanation would be appreciated #newstarterjustice
Richard Potter retweeted
On behalf of the #newstarterfurlough campaign I want to thank you for your support.
Hundreds of thousands of Employees forced OUT of employment contracts due the Gov refusing to provide legitimacy checks that are proven to be in place already. It’s inhumane and is torturous.

#newstarterfurlough @RishiSunak you said no one left behind, we believed you. A month later we are struggling to feed our families. Today you said you are delivering your promise, but we are still here begging you to listen and understand that we have nothing
Richard Potter retweeted
#newstarterfurlough @RishiSunak @hmtreasury only 5% of the claimed 200k people were actually helped by the date change, will the treasury get serious and be done with this RTI palaver? Stop messing us about! All we did was change our job, which we dont deserve to be punished for!

My heart dropped when I started to understand the small print and realised it wasnt changing a thing for me, my phone hasn't stopped bleeping with friends and loved ones wanting to tell me the great news, I actually feel lower than I did yesterday, we need #newstarterjustice now
People expressing their concern that if you explore small print of this announcement is not as wide ranging as the government claims and there are still many not helped by this. Let’s go back to pressing them to improve. gov.uk/government/news/furlo…

Why in God's name have they included the clause about the RTI submission date? It's like giving with one hand and taking with the other. If someone started a new job in March, how are they going to be paid before the end of the month?

I didn't choose to leave my old job on 25th feb they went bust, started new job 2nd March, in 17 years only 1 week not on system and now no income #newstarterfurlough #wearethetaxpayers @RishiSunak

Canada, Germany, Spain and New Zealand. Saves EVERY JOB AND EVERY HOUSEHOLD by providing for EVERYONE. @RishiSunak @hmtreasury causing people to loose income, loose jobs and now homes. Disgusting #newstarterprotest #newstarterjustice #newstarterfurlough

It’s wrong on so many levels. Short-sighted on @RishiSunak’s part. The ramifications of his decision reach far and wide. #newstarterfurlough #furloughfamily #wearethetaxpayers

@NewStarterFurlo I can furlough 2 people that no longer work for my business. I can’t furlough 39 new starters. How is that right? All my customers are closed, no income, no support and now no staff. They want to stay, I want them to stay. This has to change #newstarterfurlough
Richard Potter retweeted
How about you give me back my tax I've been paying, I even got taxed March! @RishiSunak I'm so angry, upset, hurt, stressed I want to scream and cry but that wont get me anywhere. You're ruining all our lives. Never had so much anxiety. #newstarterfurlough #wearethetaxpayers

@RishiSunak your slick advert has just appeared on the tv.. you say you're doing EVERYTHING to protect jobs and businesses. But you arent are you? If you were you would not be ignoring the poverty #newstarterfurlough brings ! #wearethetaxpayers

Nice speech @DominicRaab but the "excellent work" the chancellor is doing has left thousands of us behind. For all the talk of realism, the cabinet is living in la la land. Quit patting yourselves on the back and make the needed changes now. #newstarterfurlough #wearethetaxpayers
Richard Potter retweeted
@RishiSunak @BorisJohnson @hmtreasury what checks are done to stop fraud on the current furlough scheme? Compared to someone who started in March and paid tax at the end of March? #newstarterfurlough #wearethetaxpayers
Richard Potter retweeted
Your words @RishiSunak quoted in the FT. “Whatever it takes” are you thinking of others and acting with decency? #newstarterfurlough #wearethetaxpayers
Richard Potter retweeted
This is a massive number of people. However, based on the estimated 8m furloughing it is only an extra 3%. Cost is not the issue, it is a refusal of @RishiSunak to change despite pressure from all angles. PLEASE CHANGE NOW #newstarterfurlough #wearethetaxpayers
This is BIG. It shows just how many people are affected by #newstarterfurlough, and have been left behind - and also there will be probably be more in March than just the average, as seasonal workers mostly start in March. It’s a massive campaign to sort out a massive issue!
Richard Potter retweeted
@Ed_Miliband congratulations and welcome back. Please can you use your new position to tackle to massive issue of the CJRS cut off date of 28 Feb. This is leaving tens of thousands without support just because they changed job in March so can’t be furloughed #newstarterfurlough
Richard Potter retweeted
A remarkable momentum shift
