Without the right to buy social housing would be the only option, the right to buy set of the housing market.
Jobless to work 'clearing litter' !!!

Meh, I am getting tired of people whining about benefits and deciding to point their fingers at, and look down at, the people on them instead of the government who set the system up. it's just judgemental and arrogant.
If you really care or are offended that much then do something about it. Write to your MP en masse.

Or take up arms and overthrow the goverment, you can then inforce your own policies. Just went to the JC again, out of 80 jobs, 2 or 3 are suitable. No point going for welder, fabrictor, elecrician carpenter jobs. Just be wasting there time, and also mine.

Stalin and Mao alikes would be the out come, they became worse than that which they replaced.
If GD ran the government I think everybody who can't work would starve to death, everybody convicted of a crime would be executed, and all the savings would go to making cars and fuel tax-free.

Are you not part of GD?
Ah yes, how could I forget.
I'm not a regular, but I wasn't talking about every member of GD.
Just what seems like a vocal, seemingly majority, of angry people.

My experiences exactly. But I have GCSE's, and various certifications. At least tried to get on the ladder but didn't. So why should I accept toilet cleaner.
I'd rather be unemployed than go back to the supermarket, it was that miserable. Every now and then a supervisor or manager made your life there living hell. Also it's hardly a career, it's not what I wanted to do. Perhaps maybe if I have no skills, qualifications and a bit thick. If you're a full timer you are unable to plan interviews.
When I do look for jobs that are suitable, they're either miles away, require transport, or require someone with vast amounts of experience. No trainees or anything.
And when I do a wide search from various jobs- retail, warehouse, labour, it found 3 jobs. 3. And one was too far.
so basically you find hard work boring and would rather claim money from the government
you also dont get replies from interviews as posted before
have you ever wondered why you dont?
why not work in a nightclub? - it isnt a boring job - there is a thing called public transport
you think hard work is beneath you but claiming money for nothing isnt

when you said you hated working in a supermarket
as for needing experience thats bull - I used to run my family's restaurant i now have my own job with a multinational company through my uni degree
throughtout the time i ran the restaurant over 4 years mostly everyone i employed had no previous experience
all of my staff learnt how to clean the pipes etc
pour drinks within a day or two and they now run the place for me
Absolute bullocks mate, stop being lazy and whining on the net and go get a JOB! Theres plenty, if you can't find one your not trying hard enough.

the thing is he aint trying - he never gets replies from interviews what does that tell you
that makes me think hes sabotaging them either conciously or unconciously, and maybe a bit of hard labour might convince him to find a better job.
I slipped my spine working for the supermarkets so hard labour isn't possible.
I'm sure they'll find something for you to do.
Of course they will, they show willing to work, gain experience and have the attitude to actually go find the jobs. Unlike many dole scroungers. Yes there are some people who generally need the help and that's what it is there for. But I bet it's a very low percentage.
This is kind of how I see work for temp job agencies.
They seem to have quite a high turnover in factories and the like; they tell the agencies not to send people back for arbitrary reasons and the employee has no way to dispute this. This allows a culture of fear of losing out on work and enables them to work people harder than they should, for less pay, and give them less or no job benefits.
Also, I've heard of legislation that will force employers to pay temps the same as full time workers after 3 months. This seems like it will only exasperate the situation and parallels the idea that it is easier to use the employment system to get cheap(er) labour than to pay people a wage they can live on and have some job security.
If there are litter picking and cleaning jobs for people to do while getting benefits, why not employ them at the minimum wage. Then again, that wouldn't stop the current cleaners and litter pickers losing their jobs in favour of the cheap labour though
