Many people who become unemployed have worked for decades before they become unemployed, it is a bit unfair to say that all the unemployed should not get benefits.
A great many people are now going to be made unemployed because of greedy Bankers massive mistakes and gambling with investments,coupled with a series of Government mismanagements so rather than the unemployed not getting any benefits it should be they who are made to squeal the loudest with cuts not the ordinary people.
I agree with stopping some foreign aid, especially to India at present, they even have a space programme going on and yet we are giving aid to them.
However I am glad overall the UK is still in the main a caring society and I hope from my generation onwards that we make sure it stays that way,you judge how good a society you are as to how you and how you allow your leaders to treat the poorest and weakest in that society.
