    Why is it that if you've actually worked constantly and paid NI credits etc and therefore get CB JSA that you are then penalised and won't get mortgage interest help? I am fed up, if I hadn't worked so much and was on IB JSA, I'd get help with my mortgage, prescriptions, glasses, dentists, again it seems to punish the people that worked harder!

    Gordon Brown didn't exactly make this difference clear when the scheme was announced...
    100%agree with that, it doesnt pay you to work to better yourselves
