What you and others are failing to realise is that the job was never there to start with .It is easy to put someone to work all it does is act as a 'bonus' to those who do work at Poundland by virtue of them doing less work .It is a false and meaningless argument to suggest that because an unemployed person has been found a few floors to mop that they are denying someone else a job .Taxpayers are subsidizing those out of work to get into the habit of work and make them more employable not top give Poundland free staff to mop their floors ,that will be done regardless.
