If you were Chancellor what is the first thing you would do?
I would do more to help people who are self-employed like me and work in the media. Everybody thinks that just because you're on TV, you're worth a fortune and you earn a huge amount. That's not the case. At the moment, my crew and everybody else is really struggling.

That's a tough gig, there is the bounce back loan now but they'll need to decide if it's worth trying to persist, with the uncertainty or bite the bullet and go bank into the jobs market.
