As I posted earlier according to the Media today Sunak has made it quite clear
Rishi Sunak today moved to kill off claims he wants the UK to have a closer relationship with the EU amid fury on the Tory backbenches.
The Prime Minister said there would be no 'alignment' with the block's trade laws under his leadership as he addressed the Confederation of British Industry (CBI).
Reports at the weekend suggested he and Chancellor Jeremy Hunt want to put the UK on the path to a 'Swiss-style' relationship with Brussels to boost trade.

I don't think that the economy should revolve around concerns about people committing suicide at the thought of doing a days work. If people have mental health problems they should be protected and looked after, if they are simply too idle to work they shouldn't. I agree if fit and able they should work and pay their way, as for suicides in the UK about 20 people kill themselves every day of all ages for one reason or another, sad to say but it happens |

It's identity, it's social interaction, it's a feeling of self worth. Pricing so many out of work with NMW may well be less than disconnected with that suicide rate. |

You got to be a job seeker to claim unemployment bbenefits. You cant claim the bbenefit if you leave /sacked from work without a good reason the unemployment benefits office gets in touch with your employer to see why you left work. Then it takes a decision maker to look at your unemployment application up to two weeks to make the Decision |

But all these immigrants that you want to arrive and have free British passports go straight on to benefits, so are you saying there is one law for them and one law for the rest of us?
Accusing people of being "another right winger" simply because they have a job and pay tax is rather silly.

We have 5 million on out-of-work benefits - That 5 million includes people like my sister. Suffers from MS. Is unable to move for herself, not even to go to the loo. Has carers in 4 times to clean her and (half) dress her to sit in her chair. But yeah, she is on "out of work benefits", so all she needs is a job... Places like Blackpool have 25 per cent of the working-age population on out-of-work benefits - I somehow doubt that they all have MS. Although it is interesting how times have changed - it used to be that the left in Britain wanted jobs for British workers - now they seem to want jobs for foreign workers and leave British people sitting on the dole.. |

Although it is interesting how times have changed - it used to be that the left in Britain wanted jobs for British workers - now they seem to want jobs for foreign workers and leave British people sitting on the dole.. Yes, the phrase was used by Gormless Gordon Brown when PM From the Guardian back then Gordon Brown has no regrets over using the phrase "British jobs for British workers", Downing Street insisted today as a series of unofficial strikes broke out over UK construction jobs awarded to European workers. As anger intensified over plans by oil companies to employ Portuguese and Italian workers, the prime minister said that he understood people's concerns. Asked whether the prime minister regretted using the controversial phrase, branded illegal and racist by critics, his spokesman in London said: "I don't see any reason for regret. The action that we have taken has meant that we are now putting in place measures that ensure British workers can have access to the vacancies in the system." This is perhaps the reason why many in Blackpool are claiming befits not fit for work Blackpool has a very serious problem of Heroin use; it was confirmed that Blackpool has the highest drug death rate in the country last year |

Although it is interesting how times have changed - it used to be that the left in Britain wanted jobs for British workers - now they seem to want jobs for foreign workers and leave British people sitting on the dole.. I'm making a point about you labelling those sick or disabled as those who could work. I know not all of them have MS (other conditions are available) and I never claimed they did. What I'm objecting to is your lumping of those unable to work with those capable of working. Your 5.4 million figure needs to be revised, as you're aware. Edit: the number of vacancies is more than the number of unemployed... |
