He is absolutely right: the support is £8 a head. That is Last night, the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities the national funding formula that is provided to all and Local Government offered just £22 million for a local authorities entering tier 3. That is the same as is city region of 2.8 million people. That is less than the provided in Lancashire and indeed, in the Liverpool £25 million he granted to his own town centre. Why do city region, and that is the amount that he refers to, this Government hate Greater Manchester? which is done on an equitable basis for all local authorities. The additional amounts he talks about were reached in Rishi Sunak: It is disappointing to hear the hon. negotiation with my right hon. Friend the Communities Gentleman’s tone. It is obviously a very difficult time Secretary and representatives of the Government. That for many people in this country as we evolve our response offer remains available to Greater Manchester, and to this virus, but what we need is people acting in that is why I hope they engage in these negotiations a constructive spirit, and that is what my right hon. constructively. 889 Oral Answers 20 OCTOBER 2020 Oral Answers 890 Mel Stride (Central Devon) (Con) [V]: My right hon. that people are protected and that those who have lost Friend has done a great deal to support jobs in our out and been excluded from support can be included country, but he will know that lockdowns destroy jobs this time? and lead to increased mental illness and a smaller economy that for many years will be less able to look Rishi Sunak: We have announced the job support after our most vulnerable.

Rishi Sunak: As ever, my right hon. Friend makes an Alison Thewliss: Sixty-seven per cent. of wages for excellent point. He is right about the damage to not people who are on minimum wage jobs—the lowest only non-covid health outcomes but people’s jobs and paid in our society—is simply not good enough and livelihoods and the long-term damage that that will gives them absolutely no incentive to self-isolate and cause to all our health outcomes.With regard to projections, stick to the rules.The Scottish Government have announced he will know that both the Office for Budget Responsibility a grant of £500 for the lowest paid, but the UK Government and the International Monetary Fund project 3% scarring, may swipe that back and pick the pockets of the poorest which will mean our economy potentially being £70 billion in taxation.

    Buying a mobile phone Getting started A SIM card is the small chip that goes into mobile phones allowing the phone to connect to the local network. Making calls in the UK using your own international SIM card is likely to be expensive so you might want to buy a new SIM or buy another mobile phone with a SIM included. It can sometimes be cheaper to buy an international calling card that will let you make calls home from a landline, mobile phone or phone box. You can buy calling cards from the newsagent’s shop opposite the Parkinson Building. Currently, when using a UK SIM, you will not be charged extra fees to use your UK allowance of minutes, texts or data plan when in countries within the European Economic Area (EEA). Some providers may also have offers for usage in other countries such as the US, so look out for this. There are two different ways to buy a mobile phone: pay-as-you-go or a contract. Please read the following information carefully to see what you will need to get started. Pay-as-you-go You can get a pay-as-you-go mobile phone or SIM card very quickly and it is easy to keep track of how much you are spending on calls.

    CARDIFF COUNCIL CYNGOR CAERDYDD EXECUTIVE BUSINESS MEETING: 3 NOVEMBER 2011 WORLD BOXING CONVENTION 2013 (WBC) REPORT OF CHIEF OFFICER (CITY DEVELOPMENT) AGENDA ITEM: 11 PORTFOLIO : TRANSPORT & ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT Reason for this Report 1. To enable Cardiff to host the World Boxing Council Convention 2013 and approve appropriate budgets to assist in developing the event programme. 2. To attract a World Title bout and Convention which will have an economic impact of up to £3.2m in the city economy 3. To enhance Cardiff’s reputation as an international sports capital and to generate significant global media exposure to promote the city on an international stage. Background 4. Over the last decade Cardiff has built an international reputation for the successful delivery of high profile sporting events, including; the Rugby World Cup; the FA Cup and Heineken Cup Finals, the Ashes Test and the Ryder Cup. Alongside this the city has developed a world-class sporting and visitor destination infrastructure. In recognition of this Cardiff was recently awarded the status of European Capital of Sport. 5. It is recognised that this programme of major sporting events has led to significant benefits for the city economy, including: attracting tourists and the additional consumer spend they bring into the local economy; world- wide media coverage and profile; increased civic and national pride and encouraging increased participation in sporting activities. 6. The World Boxing Council Night of the Champions and World Boxing Convention therefore represent significant opportunities for Cardiff to build on its established platform and to expand into a new events market, with the ultimate aim of becoming a recognised location for major boxing events.
