I would prefer a slightly different approach to this rather than the 'stressing' of the loss of benefits tone.I like 'most' of what I have heard as to this so far but 'not all of it'.

I feel it is a good thing for those who are really struggling to find work to be given the opportunity to work by ensuring if there is a job available then they do it.
It is also a good thing as to this policiy that it doesn't have to end there and that further education or training for skills can also be put into place.

It needs simplifying and more clarity but overall I support it as in fact I have supported the present govts. attempts to get this age grouping into work, however they have not gone far enough and don't do more of what is needed.
This policy goes some way to starting to address the shortfalls of the presnt govts.policy and so is welcome for that at least.

It still, even under the Labour proposals,needs a bit more sensitivity and compassion as to the tone of presenting the policy,to make sure the media are not able to totally distort it.
