Seriously though, I don’t see how anyone can actually make themselves presentable in the job market on 60 pounds per week.
I recall that you can now claim for a suit if you are on benfefits for an interview- sure I read that couple of months back.
Some may recall that we used to have ERB (Earnings Related benefits) in the UK - so if you lost your job you did not drop your income to say 60 quid a week - youw ould receive appox 60 per cent of your takehome for a bout a year I recall - this is the system they have in most EC states.
Thatcher stopped this benefit - meanwhile your taxes have risen and even NL would not dream of giving people Earnings Related Benfit.
ERB meant if you lost your job you could live in a dignified manner and not suffer the stresses of poverty whilst looking for your next job.
Especially if you were a high wage earner and contribued more to the system in terms of taxes.
So - Will we see the return of ERB ?
No Chance.
Well - they need 200 Billion for the Trident upgrade.
NL - ha ha - charade you are
