But ROB, what about this scenario.

Helen has lost her job on TV, and there is nothing else so she has had to sign on.

As part of the Job Seekers agreement, she MUST prove she is actively seeking employment. The Rules in recent years have always had a punitive philosphy. All unemployed people are scroungers and worse than (enter villain of the week)

Helen was a trained hairdresser so her idea of actively seeking employment is to pound the streets until you get something, or as Lord Tebbit's father did, got on his bike and looked for work....
