And what happens if they refuse to do this, they end up loosing benefits? Then it's back to the crime talk! Can't put them in prison they would only get community service anyway.....

 

Thats ok then will just let them hold us to ransom because they might turn to crime.And what do you think they do already i dont know anyone who works full time popping out at lunch to burgle a house or go shop lifting

I don't think being unemployed should mean a ticket to an easy life, tokens for food [exchangeable at government food banks] and 2 days a week community service should apply, last winter when the snow and ice lay thick, I was the only fool in the street who cleared outside of my house, and there are quite a few able bodied unemployed in my street.

Not sure if the link will work, but I created a fictitious 28 year old single mum with 8 kids on an online benefits calcuator site, claiming for moderate disability and two moderately disabled kids.

 

The result was £43,196.35 per annum. That's £62500 before tax.

Whilst I agree that there are plentiful scroungers out there claiming benefits that they don't deserve, there is the otherside of the spectrum too, especially when you mention disability.

 

My missus works with disabled kids and their families and the things they have to pay for, like specialist machinery, wheelchairs, treatments and the like is by no way covered by disability benefits for some families and needs to be addressed.

 

As far as JSA or child tax credit goes, well thats another story
