Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

A link would be good...

btw, love your definition of "guilty" - no charges were brought.

So, just to get it straight - in your eyes, if a company discovers some of it's employees are committing fraud, if they then report this to the DWP and police, fire the employees, pay back the money the employees fraudulenty obtained, the company is still guilty?

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

What definition of "guilty"?

they paid the money back.

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

That definition of guilty....

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

You're the one who brought the term of guilty into it. and to be honest I don't know what you mean.

I've updated my post. it was 5 times and not 4. and you said it's only 2.

Anybody going to any of the protests on the 3rd March?

I see they're getting ready for them. the Police have been told to clamp down hard.

I expect if they're happening all over the country then it could have potential to become mini riots.

I think the government will see that it's not just a tiny minority such as the SWP. they'll see that it's mostly the general public.

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

No ,unfortunately the majority of the general public will be too busy working

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

That's a thought. I wonder how many doing the free labour on that day would have wanted to give their support?

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

Not what the polls say...

If they protest against something that is designed to help them they need a good slap .......and sanctioned

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

That's a bit biased.
they say that it's voluntary. some people are missing the point that a lot of the upset is about it wasn't voluntary and that a lot of people were told they had to do it.
(as we discussed earlier)

I wonder how many of them who said they weren't against it, work. or just had prejudices against the unemployed?
a reversal of the "Job Snob" if you like.

Oh dear Hugh ,looks like those facts got in the way again :)

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

I was reading your initial first posts in this thread. I'm wondering what made you change your attitude later on?

Re: Sainsbury's pull out of 'Work for your benefits scheme'
 

Oh give it a bloody rest Gary ,the majority of tax payers if not the majority of the country as a whole think it's a good idea ,it's only the people who are scared of losing the freedom they have to sit on the dole with the state paying for everything that object along with a few idiots that think some kind of 'uman right has beeen violated
