    Well i think funding for the training courses has been cut, as for staff i think there are temps that will be going, there will be cuts as with all public sector jobs and the jobcentre plus will not be exempt.

    I don't wish to see anyone lose their jobs and livelihoods, but for some jobcentre staff I have had to 'deal' with in the past, I won't be shedding many tears for them.

    I suspect many more of their 'customers' will feel the same.
