I wonder if this is just the start and eventually all the unemployed will have to work continually for nothing.Its already started in a lot of places that if someone leaves then they are not replaced due to cuts etc.
Its like we are going back more than a century, its really depressing.I honestly cant see the U.K getting out of this mess, in the next 5 years or so. Unemployment has always been a problem and I dont remember in my lifetime it being below 1 million, but I never recall it being like this!

Yep, I've been feeling this for months now. Cameron and his pals want us back to the workhouse days.

I find his behaviour quite chilling...

I don't know whether anyone watched Question Time last night. One of the panelists, Owen Jones, an author, brought this up briefly during the first question about how do we tackle unemployment.

Sadly it was brushed under the carpet very quickly as it seemed the panel and Dimbleby, the host, were probably told not to talk about the subject for fear of reprisals as they know this scam sooner or later is going to be uncovered for what it really is.

Oh god can you imagine being stuck in a McDonalds drive through working for free, that has to be the ultimate kick in the teeth, you've really hit rock bottom if you land their, especially if your a grad.

If I get free burgers then not so bad. Benefits and burgers what more could you ask for!
