Why should the burden fall just on those that were unlucky enough to be furloughed? A lot of those have been made redundant in the past month before the new extension so not sure how you would even go about taxing just those that benefited more.
It seems like something we should all be paying for anyway, if it even needs to be. In the same way that we shouldn't raise taxes on just those that caught Covid to pay for the extra NHS costs.
