Unemployment shooting up

They’ll be raking the coin in and getting loads more staff in I bet. Sad as it is this is a very profitable time for the lads in that game

Dignity are one of the biggest funeral directors in the country, their share price on 3rd March was £5.95, today it is £2.32. Why do you think their share price has dropped so much if they're raking the coin in and it's such a profitable time for them?

It already does though. Craft beer shops, Lush, chocolate shops are always packed, look at fenwicks food hall, always busy they’ve adapted to that market. A high street with good facilities like decent bars, a market and some high end clothes will do absolutely fine. People love that sort of thing.

It’s not my thing either but people love a rake about in them

Casual dining group (cafe rouge, Bella Italia, las iguanas) about to go into administration as well. although I reckon someone will come and rescue las iguanas, still seems popular

I suppose rescued is subjective as ultimately I’d imagine most of the suppliers and creditors will be getting bumped for any money owed which could have the knock on effect of f***ing them over but it’ll be happening a lot in all fields for a while when the economy opens up more

All failing pre covid. Look at the way they discount food at certain times. A shitty way to run your business and I predicted this would happen when we went into lockdown. Happy hour dining is over now cos of all these chains going tits up. In that respect I’m pleased because before all this chain shit you could go out to nice independent restaurants and spend an evening eating and drinking. Now everyone expects to eat between 6-7 and get it cheap. Places are empty later through the night

Me too, knives, placemats etc. I went to have a look online but thy're basically only allowing folks to buy at certain times (I'm not wanting to buy anything as such, but you cant even check what sizes they have in lol).

Maybes they're doing a discount, two for one, happy hour type of thing.
8M jobs being supported by the tax payer. :lol:

Sorry that last bit wasn't meant for you.

I'm OK mate, glad you are too. Stabbed in the front!

Pretty specialised job not affected by digital and Havant seems to have escaped for the time being too. I think it's inevitable that we'll all be gone at some point though.

Was always on the cards, OVO wanted the customers, not the staff or non-core business that came with it. EVR package is canny shite too.


Well you have the power to (partly at least) change it. Each 1000 mile march starts with but a single step.


It's a glorified jumble sale man.

Third time in 18 months I’ve been on the chopping block. ***** trick by ovo like after guaranteeing jobs not 5 months ago. Hopefully after cutting so deep this time we will all no alright for a while and a bit of stability to return. Thought I’d signed up to secure job for life when I’d started 5 and a half years ago. Been nowt but uncertainty and worry!
