YouTube Description
as posted by the channelThis call between a man who sold everything to survive the pandemic and a woman who believes she is entitled to payment from the government is vital listening.
"Please don't tell me the taxpayer should pay for your golf club membership." The call didn't begin well for Lisa, who was challenged by Iain Dale for believing she should be helped more by the government during the coronavirus crisis because she pays taxes.
"Can I not get enough to pay these things" she said, referencing her subscriptions – including membership to a golf club.
Lisa persisted, telling Iain that she has "family members that have never paid a dime in their life and get all the benefits."
"The system is to support people who fall on hard times, having a golf club membership indicates you have not fallen on hard times." Iain told her, maintaining that she has no right to be given extra help because of her outgoings. Lisa wasn't happy with this answer, insisting "we still have to pay out for things we've already subscribed to, even though we can't use them" which she saw as completely unfair.
What followed wasn't expected by Iain, or Lisa, or anyone listening. Paul is a businessman who told Lisa that he and his wife "pretty much sold everything we had to keep everything going" as they fell on hard times during the coronavirus crisis.
