House Democrats are putting forward a new proposal for coronavirus relief

The latest Democratic measure would revive a $600-per-week pandemic jobless benefit and send a second round of $1,200 direct payments to most individuals. It would scale back an aid package to state and local governments to a still-huge $436 billion, send a whopping $225 billion to colleges and universities, and deliver another round of subsidies to businesses under the Paycheck Protection Program.

Politicians exempt from 10pm bar curfew as House of Commons boozers use sneaky loopholeBARS in the House of Commons are not subject to the new 10pm curfew imposed across England in order to stop the spread of the coronavirus, it has been revealed.
