It may take me a month or two to get a job... in that time I would have to claim.

To be honest, you sound like you're not long out of school, and now you have your first job, you can't understand why everyone else can't be like you.

Can you let us know what percentage of people claiming JSA don't want to work? Please don't quote the Daily Mail.

On a larger scale no, of course not.

From experience with working with people claiming JSA I have found it to be about 2-3 in every 10 really couldn't be bothered to work or are anti-employment in general.

I started a thread in Discussion Time last night called Workfare exposed FINALLY, after the Guardian exposed the truth yesterday.

WEll I am sorry if you are claiming JSA and have bills to pay then you need to take whatever job you can get to get you back on your feet at which point you can look for something more suitable thats how I was brought up.

There are jobs available out there. Not ideal jobs for everybody but jobs all the same. People moan about the polish taking our jobs well its because the British are too lazy to work!

Careful up there on the moral high ground, Richard. Your boss might suddenly think to himself "Why should I pay Richard to do his job when I can get people from the dole to work for free?"...

Instead of forcing these lazy, good-for-nothing scroungers to work for free, why can't we force them to work for a wage instead?

Or is that logic beyond the Government?
