Benefits shake-up: warning for non-working claimants

cit_k

If you want errors in the document - start with the title page -

Welfare that works

Er - it has not even been implemented or the details agreed yet - so they cannot claim it works.

A nice way to start a document, a lie on the front title page.

Thanks for that, I had the nagging feeling I may have jumped the gun and missed something truly astounding.

Ha Ha no sense of humour on here but it is lucky that I decided to get back into IT as a contractor as all these initiatives will need a new computer network system to process everything so I should be in work for the foreseeable future until they find out it was a waste of money and never worked and was a massive co(k up....... Then I can go back to doing nothing ;o)))

I do think this will go belly up but I do know some people who are "scratching on" to get out of paying the CSA anything but are working on the sly and these people should be found out and struck off, but as everyone knows innocent people will be caught up and penalised, will be committing suicide and the same horror stories will be in the press the same as when the CSA was set up.

So you didn't mind taking someone's job in the town you were working in?

Someone more suited as they didn't have as far to travel?

It's attitudes like this that explain why some people are unemployed for long periods. Bring on the sanctions!

Because they can ensure single people get X, while couples get X plus a little bit, and families with children get X plus a bit more.

It would cost a lot more your way. Sadly.

Why should people with children get more money than those without?

You can sack them, at the ballot box.

No, you can't.

You can't disband this nation's democratic government (by sacking ALL MP's - inc. the opposition and minority parties) and the house of lords have actually saved us from some consititutional abuses under Labour, but even if they hadn't, NO, you still can't "sack them" with one vote.

"Clear out both houses of parliament" (ctrl > alt > delete on the state because I don't want to pay for it) is NOT an option you can tick.

Sorry.:rotfl:

Everything is just great as long as it doesn't affect you.

It was just an idea for you to get a group of people together and to do something.
