• This is all hypothetical, and I don't want to make it look like I'm singling out the parent scenario over all others, it's applicable to many scenarios.

    If you're forced to stay at home and your work choose to not pay you, or force you onto SSP, how many of your outgoing commitments can you afford to keep honouring? I definitely can't afford nursery if I've not been paid, and I'd be reluctant to pay if it was closed so I was paying for a service I wasn't receiving.
