If the government is going to try and get claiments of income support ect to try to find jobs where are they?

will there not be a heck of a lot of people claiming job seekers allowance and does this in turn not cause more problems for the government?

this government live in la la land if you get rid of all immigrants that would save the country of ours more money than ever more jobs more cheap descent affordable houses no more ripping up green Field's that would be good for our children`s children`s children that's the only way to go now in this country now

When I claimed income support I had to show that I had made sufficient effort to look for work.

I think you misunderstand what Jokseekers allowance is.

Hi Kelly.
Steady on, you're talking about British politicians here, most of the senior ones who are millionaires and don't give a damn about the people who have to live in the "real world", besides they're not capable of thinking that far ahead. The biggest problem facing any claimant from now on will be that the fact that the D.W.P and unsocial services are themselves under threat of redundancies, so all the people who are employed there to "help" the public will be too busy trying to impress their
supervisors by getting people off certain benefits so as to justify their own jobs, not exactly a good environment to expect fair play eh.

If you borrow a thousand pounds from your bank at, say, eight percent and your parents find out and are horrified by your debts..you then borrow another thousand from your credit card company at twenty-six percent to pay off the bank loan..which you tell your parents has been paid off, you are still in debt, more so than before..but your parents may not find out about the second loan for a couple of months and by then you will have found another lender or be able to go back to the bank....and so on. This is how government departments deal with what they think the public will regard as bad news, they shift it along; release the good news and then prepare to shift it again.Which is why one is so often left with the impression that something is actually being done to solve a problem only to find out in time that it is worse than ever.

The jobs are out there, almost a million of them.
There would be loads more too if the east european economic migrants all went home.
Trouble is, that too many people want to take the piss out of the benefits system, so every now and again, people kick up a fuss and the government starts looking for ways to tighten up the system.

The job seeker rules are more demanding than income support.
