Totally agree. The government stuff during COVID was very helpful to us. We used the Furlough scheme (but still paid our staff 100% of their wages and not the 80% required). We got the loan to tide us over if needed, but it was never needed.

We didn't take the piss, took what we needed, used it as it was supposed to be used and paid back what we were supposed to when it was ir was due. I reckon most small businesses did the same, but as usual that's not enough for some selfish, greedy bastards and now we are all suffering for it......hopefully there is a special place in hell reserved for all of them.
