If they're 'working' 30 hours per week. how are they going to find time to get a real job?
or is the thinking and reasoning that because there aren't enough jobs for everyone anyway, then they're not likely to get one anyway.

is it going to be acceptable that they will never find a job. and as long as they're working for free. and possibly going to make many hundreds, if not thousands redundant. then we don't care?

many people work part time. less than these 30 hours the unemployed are expected to do. have they got spare time on their hands to look for a job? do we assume that they don't have a life as such. so will have plenty of time on their hands.

it works in America, because they have discipline if you like. but over here there is no discipline or respect. somebody who feels that they have nothing left to lose won't think twice about their actions.

councils have got to save millions. make the workforce redundant and use the unemployed.
that thing about they won't be allowed to will be out the window.
along with everything else that is happening with this government that are using us all like pawns.

Where have I got 30 hours from?
