Forbes package like a Christmas cracker joke

10th December 2020 (Daily Business). Taxi drivers, wedding photographers and visitor attractions are among those receiving new support from the Scottish government, though one organisation described the help on offer as like a “Christmas cracker joke”. Small businesses, including the self-employed, will share £185 million of consequentials distributed from Westminster, Finance Secretary Kate Forbes announced. She said there will also be additional one-off payments to hospitality businesses in January to help them deal with the traditional post-Christmas dip in demand.
