its absolutely disgusting that people should have to mix with others out of their box. Everyone who is unemployed is different why should people be lumped in with people who have been in prison etc or people who want to swear etc.

The Mps should go to a New Deal place for a day bet they wouldnt like it!

they wouldn't last two minutes.

red devil-there is plenty of help in setting up a new business under New Deal for the Self Employed, including a six month period of test trading with the advantage of still receiving benefits. Mr Bright-I am a little confused by your situation-is your partner claiming as a single parent and you are looking after your child whilst she goes to work? If so, has she investigated whether tax credits would cover the childcare costs? If I am mistaken and you are claiming for your child, the New Deal has provision to pay for child care whilst you are on the courses.
