Government to cover 80% of self employed income. Equality and parity with employed workers

The Issue

So an emoloyee earning £30k a year and has monthly mortgage payments greater than 20% of their monthly pay is better of now than before the virus struck.

Self employed are left to flounder

Employee on £30k

Net £1994 per month salary

Under government now they get 80%

1994 X 80% = £1595

By my calculations anyone with a mortgage payment of £400 per month or more and avails of the mortgage payment holiday now is better of on a monthly basis because of the virus

I am a self employed Mortgage adviser and nearly every mortgage is over £400 pet month.

Where is the help for the self employed?

We make up 20% of the workforce and we pay our tax and national insurance too.
