The GREED of some people! Makes me SICK!

Victoria Beckham was slammed on social media after furloughing 30 staff at her struggling fashion label – despite having a staggering family fortune of £335 million.

The former Spice Girl, whose handbag collection alone is thought to be worth £1.5 million, is to claim what could amount to tens of thousands of pounds of taxpayers’ money to pay a quarter of her employees under the Government’s job retention scheme.

Staff from across her fashion label – which charges £1,500 for a dress – have received letters explaining that they would be paid 80 per cent of their salaries by the Government, in line with Chancellor Rishi Sunak’s scheme to help firms during the pandemic.

Critics slammed Mrs Beckham for taking advantage of the taxpayer-funded scheme rather than using her own wealth to pay staff, having recently bought a penthouse in Miami for £20million with her husband.
