Lets make my point a little clearer, I live in Hounslow, if l was offered a job in say Putney, l would have to consider several things, whats the job worth, what the travelling expenses, what time l would have to start.

Then you look at what benefit you get, and if you get the job, the financial strain you will have to face, you don't get working credit until you have been at a job SIX WEEKS, You have to look at all angles, l was told that l couldn't cliam any expenses as l was not on a benefit that allowed me to claim, l was on JSA, l was only given an expense claim when l showed a letter saying l had got the job, and the expense was for one week only.

It is very well the government telling us to get on our bikes to look for work, but would you get out of bed for £13.000 per year.
