This is just a pre No Deal Brexit cost cutting excercise. Surely the use of gas is pretty constant, even with buisness not working the people cooking at home will compensate. There is no other reason for it and many other big buisness will use the Corona Virus excuse to shed jobs

And the demand for oxygen gas is increasing. How about reallocating resources.

Cutting jobs?Consumers never had free gas and electricity.🤣😂🤣🤣😂👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Why? How are these in anyway affected by the coronavirus pandemic? Presumably gas consumption hasn’t changed? Or is this a knock on effect of the low oil prices?

Which UK companies are cutting jobs in the coronavirus crisis?Rolls-Royce, BP, BA, easyJet and Ryanair among those to announce redundancies GOD is infinite number of correct things with one mistake only!! The mistake is death of life!! Professor Aman Tolla Hamda These are just major companies.. wait until we get the end of furlough and the smaller business employers start shedding staff or go under. I’d say at least a few million. I feel desperately sorry for anyone losing their livelihood. Some of those sectors worst affected (air travel, cars etc) are however those that need to shrink dramatically to properly tackle climate change. Govt needs to support those workers into jobs in a green economy.
