yeah,just kidding.... although we could probably make do with about a million or so less in the public sector... it's shocking,really.
A German government(!!) commission published a report a few years back saying they could do with about Two million (!!) public servants and about a quarter of all laws and regulations less!! Imagine the money that gets burned every day...

You ask the job centres for a grant to get to interviews and use the phone, they say - ask friends or neighbours.
Companies are leaving this country, as it it too expensive, prices are going up - but not the wages.
Go to a job centre, most of the adverts are from agencies - who make the money in getting you work on a daily basis.
The last time we had a major rally in London, it was over the poll tax and that was under a Tory government - who is running the country now, yes the Tories.

Well,I don't know Arthur,TBH I have job offers galore at the mo... I even have to refuse stuff!!
There's plenty of work out there,and a positive,can-do mindset is a good start,imo. (although I quietly suspect you don't really care for that)
