Work for Benefits in UK? Horrors!
« on: February 17, 2015, 02:19:02 PM »
How can this possibly be in the socialist paradise? I'm certain there'll be a huge stink about this.

David Cameron said about 50,000 18-21-year-olds would be required to do daily work experience from day one of their claim, alongside job searching.

All to try to keep them from being sucked into a life on welfare.

Really? I'm certain some faceless bureaucrats are licking their lips over this. A whole new government agency tasked with making sure these youths “work”. At what? Doing “public service” can be attacked as forced servitude.

Anyhow, read the story @ http://www.bbc.com/news/uk-politics-31500763

My friends in the UK would call you dirty names for suggesting that.

They're mostly liberals.

Liberals here are upset that some states are returning to the work requirement for able bodied adults with no children.

Not to mention drug testing.

There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
