  • there are plenty of jobs out there if they want one, easier to sit at home and take in the easy money of benefits
  • might make some people get a job instead of sitting at home with their sky tv and plasma screens watching jeremy kyle all day smoking and drinking their benefits away

    Clearly a Member of the Daily Mail readers club, Who all seem to know a lot about Jeremy Kyle,
  • the daily mail is the only newspaper that tells the truth about benefits,

    and everyone has heard of jeremy kyle, and the benefits recipients who appear on it

    No it is not easier to sit anywhere and apply non stop all day long for everything and anything. I keep getting told you are not working and out client will not interview the unemployed

    Someone with accounts experience also wil not get a job as a cleaner as they will just laugh the CV out the door.

    Find me a job that will interview me if you seem to think it SO easy!

    The Daily Mail (Bigot) only prints what it's bigot readers want to read.

    As for Jeremy Kyle the program is aimed at bigots like you.
