PHONE IN: FURLOUGH
The UK's furlough scheme closes today, but some badly-hit sectors are saying support should continue. Furlough was introduced in March 2020 and helped pay the wages of 11.6 million workers after Covid-19 forced large parts of the economy to close. At the end of July, it was still supporting the incomes of around 1.6m workers (around 116,500 in Scotland), the latest HMRC figures show. The chancellor said he was 'immensely proud' of the near 拢70bn scheme, but now was the right time to close it.

Stephen asks: Are you still relying on furlough?
