00:38payments was a complete disappointment I'm really surprised that has been
00:42stopped apart from people who are on benefits and the National Insurance rate
00:48I'm disappointed about that as well it is affecting businesses I'm sure and
00:52business leaders are coming across saying that so I think that's fact.
