A view mass layoffs are imminent as the US Federal Government shutdown nears its third day. 

Democrats and Republicans failed to get their respective bills through the senate, suspending thousands of government workers without pay. 

US President Donald Trump's called it an unprecedented opportunity to slash spending. 

US Correspondent Jonathan Kearsley told Andrew Dickens layoffs are coming, it's just a question of how deep and wide they are. 

He says we know they're looking to slash spending to save billions, but the shutdown is also hurting the economy every day.
