    No longer will they spend their days sitting around at home all day watching Jeremy Kyle and having afternoon naps.
    Instead they will have to take a job away from somebody who actually does want to work.

      There is stuff they can do - they can pick up rubbish, paint railings etc. It might not be fun, it might not be required but it will get them working from 9 - 5.30 every weekday!

            I should imagine there are plenty of honest JSA claimants. However if you have been out of work > 12 months you need help. Putting them on workfair is a good way to do that, it also exposes fraud which I am confident is much higher than reported.

            Plenty of work to do, we send a good portion of our electronic waste to India to be burnt they could dismantle it.

            many jobs such as rubbish picking, cleaning roads/parks/playgrounds. None of which displace current workers.

                Would it make a difference to me if you did? Even if people believe they're better than others it's only if those others believe that you're better that it has an affect

                    My predictions for the UK budget;

                    1 The government will spend more money than it raises in tax
                    2 The government will find sneaky ways of raising taxes while giving a couple of populist fops to voters like not raising booze duties
                    3 Public spending will continue to rise well beyond what the taxpayer can afford.

                    Please copy these predictions and save them in a file on your computer for future use; by my reckoning you will be able to use this prediction file once a year for the rest of your life, regardless of the political party in power.
