Is it too easy to get a ‘bounce-back’ loan? A few online questions, click the button and unless (or perhaps even if) your business is dealing spice in Wandsworth, up to £50k pops into your account next day. Many have told me that even if you don’t need it, it’s almost rude not to; it’s free money for a year and a bargain thereafter. And I’d guess there’ll be as many who don’t as do know what they’re letting themselves in for and will struggle to find the £50k or repayments thereof in future years. Damned if they do, damned if they don’t, but I guess if even half of it keeps half the firms going and spending, it will be half the money well-spent.

Here’s the flip side. Should a business not have the right to choose whom it serves? If you as a client, or more likely potential client, rub us up the wrong way, are a declared anti-vaxxer or support the barges, can we not, as a business, say ‘Be Gone’?
