If she’d filed tax returns for the previous tax year the government would have provided financial support.
Obviously the government should have been handing out cash to all comers, no questions asked, but you know, Tories.

She did file a tax return but as a self employed person earning under the threshold she was entitled to nothing.

Not quite that clear cut...
I'm partially self-employed and was eligible for fuck all through that scheme due to how much I'd earned PAYE compared with self-employment in the previous 3 tax years (it wasn't a great deal more).
A nice kick in the teeth seeing as I'm now essentially on 50% of my annual income due to three different lines of work I do in live events being on hold until fuck-knows-when.
