Isn’t the truth of it now - that no one dare throw a sickie anymore, for any reasons, let alone “Covid”.
This great opportunity has been taken up by the world’s elites to disenfranchise working classes everywhere from those things we used to take for granted:
(1) No right anymore to “employer paid” Sick pay at your job’s going rate.
(2) Jobs no longer held open whilst off sick unless that sick is unpaid.
(3) No contracts enshrining “rights” except the right to work for minimum wage for at least 48 hours per week. Big deal!
(4) Unions - protecting crap job integrity, whilst horsetrading away all the former cushy contracts in the process…
Jobs paying nothing beyond SSP and full rights to <£10ph sweatshop wages - are not worth saving, quite frankly.
Imagine the public shock when, during the next few months MILLIONS of better-paid jobs across all sectors now get lost, only to be replaced by twice the number of jobs at half pay… Eg. £18-£20ph work loses 2,000,000 jobs and 4,000,000 so-called “new” jobs come online for £9-£10ph pretty much doing the same things…

I reckon Sunak intends to expand local government, and raise taxes further, whilst Truss intends to put the scythe of “Cuts” through the public sector and government department’s across the board…
There’s even rumours of skullduggery to prevent Liz Truss (currently odds-on 1/10 to be the next PM) from winning the postal ballot among Tory members… MI5 are apparently already looking into it. Presumably, Liz Truss can rely on “5” in this way, but can she rely in “6” not to torpedo her, because 9-figure Bank Balance Sunak intends to expand the “sneaky” departments that will be doing things like chasing people for unsecured debt, jailing people for going bankrupt, and flipping credit card debt over into second mortgages as the income squeeze starts to bite…
