What rubbish. You would allow some people to refuse to work, for no reason, & defend them with human rights?

What about the human rights of ordinary hard working people, who are sick & tired of paying for some lazy useless individuals, lying in bed, waiting for their weekly handout?

Not everyone on benefits has the intention of working, just as not everyone has the intention of not working. 23 year old lads who have never worked, sitting at home with the beer cans, sucking on the bong, knocking up a 13 year old girl, & living as a parasite on the system, you would defend these people?

Defend people who want to work yes, people who cannot work, yes, people who refuse to work, no way.

my own brother had to re-train from a air frame mechanic in the RAF to a IT technician in civvy street a total change in career but does prove that someone with enough inteligence can be diverse ,this is where the government should concentrate their efforts instead of comming up with stupid ideas like the one this thread refers to
Absolutely m8, thats what I said in an earlier post. But not to sit on the system waiting for the gravy train, waiting for a job that may never materialise & expect us to pay for it. Allow a reasonable period of time, yes, but not indefinitely.
