Guest thebigdog Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 you couldnt make people do it, they could only chose to work. if you tried to force them they would take the government to the european court, as workin for so little money would be classed as slave labour.

judge2010 196 Posted February 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 no i think they should reintroduce slavery for the things you just mentioned i do feel sorry for people who really try hard to look for work but keep getting rejected. I was unemployed for a couple of weeks but go work shop-fitting 4nights a week and get the odd day plastering. when i was unemployed i went shop-lifting 4 days a week :laugh: with the building trade these days its not what you know its who you know.

shepp 2,285 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 you couldnt make people do it, they could only chose to work. if you tried to force them they would take the government to the european court, as workin for so little money would be classed as slave labour. Another good reason to pull out of the European human rights convention, any time i think of a way of dragging this society out of the shit that cu.nting law throws a massive spanner in the works Quote Link to post Share on other sites

scalesntails 118 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 I don't work at the moment. I have gone back to being a lazy student for a few years but I saved up to cover the cost first and my wife is working part time as I was the only income up until now. I do a couple hours voluntary work each week though just to feel useful. While I really hate the idea of people choosing benefits as a way of life. I don't think there is much we can do at the moment as there are less jobs available than there are people unemployed that actually want a job. I would rather the people that want to work get the jobs first. When the economy picks up and there are more jobs around then do something. The only other thing I can think of is that you must provide proof of voluntary work when you visit the job centre each time. OXFAM etc. always need people and its a good way of getting a good reference too. Childrens charities are incredibly short of volunteers as people are too afraid to volunteer these days. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Attack Fell Terrier 864 Posted February 23, 2011 Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 if people have been claiming jobseekers for over 6months do you think they should be made to do work in the community i.e. litter picking,painting, cutting the grass etc? I think it would be a good idea. Community service because they haven't got a job? How about training them up in something that suits them, that'd be better don't you think? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

How about training them up in something that suits them, that'd be better don't you think? yeah because the country has loads of money to do that. At a guess there 2.5 million unemployed people in the UK at present and how much is the average training course? How long should these courses last for? Nice idea but not very realistic in the currant finanacial climate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
