The job centre are not helping. What to do?

I do feel for OP in that when you've lost everything it is hard to find the mental energy to put in place to survive let alone the rest. You need a break and that's what you get currently signing up. However you do also need to be realistic.

Getting investment to set up a business should be about the need to develop a feasible business not giving you a mean to survive that suits your needs. Million of people would love to have the flexibility to work from home veing accountable to no one and still receive an income that allows no worry about paying the bills.

This is what the government is trying to control and that means investing in businesses that are likely to be part of the economical growth both the other way around. The onus is on you to prove this to be the case.

If you can't you will have to accept to do like millions of people do and trake a job you don't like, working for someone you don't like just to Bethan income to survive.

There are always people who are not in receipt of benefits who come on here giving it the I resent and telling people that they are to blame.

Does it make you feel good to be that sanctimonious

Try being on universal credit for a period of time. See how you go.

There's a difference between claiming benefits - which I have no issue with. Everyone should claim exactly what they are entitled to.


And complaining that the govt wont fund (not invest, fund) a business which will be unsustainable.

Try setting up a viable, long term business without writing up a business plan...

Personally, I find your post the very definition of sanctimonious.
