New Deal and Flexible New Deal Exposed

Spot on. its always promoted how the people on benefits get thousands and thousands of pounds. I am on the standard rate JSA and claim no other benefits. Approx every 2 months I lose 2 weeks money due to a sanction.

So nothing is changing. The unemployed person will be required to work unpaid, for their benefits.
This is ok for someone who gets £1000 per week benefits.
What about the poor sod who only qualifies for £10 per week jsa?
All of this ‘placement’ trickery just creates an underclass of slave labour who are paid a small fraction of the minimum wage. When they complain they get nothing at all.
