no twisting at all. if people like yourself and sensible advice do us all a favour and stop replying to us we can get back to what the thread was meant for.

Interesting how you perceive an employer + dwp advisor offering facts about post WP support and getting back into work isn't helpful.

And who's "us all" who you're representing?

Thank god she's gone to sleep all that negativity must be stressful.

no not ignoring anything. i am aware of the factors that impact on sanction decisions, i did list them. the reason i did that is because it is claimed that all 95% of sanctions that are upheld were right to be upheld. some will yes but not all.

Great, so you're aware that their POV are correct 95% of the time and your just 5%.

On the point you ignored, the mindset that someone else should take responsibility for the claimants actions is 100% wrong.

Personally I think daily signing is a stupid idea, it's not designed to hep more to p*** people into signing off. In the meantime the advisors take all the crap for id's's dumb ideas.

Having people spending spending half day on buses travelling to and from the Job Centre each day is hardly the best use of time, plus there is the cost of the fares as well.

To get to the nearest Job Centre to me, requires three buses (Two Different Companies) plus a long wait between buses. Journey time 2 1/4 hours to cover 17 miles. My neighbour does this once a fortnight, Doing this daily would be murder for him at his age.

The sooner the voter's of Chingford come to their senses and vote 'Dimwit' out next year.

Sadly there's no chance of him being voted out, it's a very safe Tory seat. So safe in fact that in 2010 IDS got more than double the votes of the Labour candidate in second!

Duncan Disorderly might have a safe seat, but there's nothing to stop voters getting the whole government out, by voting for other parties.

This seems to be the latest statement:

The point is to make life as awkward as possible in the hope that finding a job or signing off is easier.

In my opinion it's wrong but the government are holding all the cards and can do whatever they want.

I dont think they will find enough work placements for everyone,
