Most of the vacancies that are advertised in Job Centres are AGENCY jobs, where the agency makes more than the worker.

A mate of mine worked for an agency, and the company that employed him told him they would take him on permanently, as they apid the agency a fortune, as they do the vetting for them.

When l was out of work, l went to THREE agencies (recommended by the JC) the first one was in Staines and they told me that they wanted younger people and l was too experienced) second one was in Hounslow, they told me that they would call me that night - they didn't. I called at the offices at 7am in the morning and l was told the job had gone.

I had a phone call ay 5.30am asking me to get to Paddington for Parcelforce by 6.am when l said l didn't have transport, they said that was no good and took me off there books.

To provide jobs this government MUST invest in this country, and stop companies moving abroad by giving them incentives to stay.

You cannot expect working people to travel miles for a job and they are not getting the financial support at the end. All the government are doing is once again hitting the poor who cannot get a job.

I used to be in the deep cleaning business and stood and worked in a load of crap to make money, but that company went bust. So l know what hard work is like.
