New Deal and Flexible New Deal Exposed

Have also discovered the support advertised to help you back to work actually doesn’t exist when it comes down to it. Have done as advised by the government enrolled at college p/t to try and get a skill hence more employable only to be hounded to death about “eligibility for work”. They wouldn’t even accept the law laid down by the government that you are able to study up to 16 hours. I was studying 5 hours that could have got me off benefit eventually but In the end quit course and resigned myself to fate. The 5 hours they wouldn’t let me study I now just spend watching TV or something unproductive but at least they are happy!!! Only course they put you on is one where you sit in a room full of chavs and criminals doing nothing of any use. These course are run by private companies who make a killing for f’ all effectively. I sympathize with you Dave.

As usual they blame the unemployed even when 70 people chasing every job vacancy. They should look in the mirror and they’ll find the source of the problem straight away. Don’t blame the unemployed for your shitty mis-management. No-one on £64 a week is living the high-life no matter what all these shit stirrers would have you believe. As for CC and Dave – snap, almost identical happened to me.
