Because he's had a reasonably well paid long term job he's been able to afford a mortgage and has all the usually affordable debt that most working British households have. He's very specialized in his field of work which means getting work with a similar company is really his only option.
So okay, lets give him a job and if he refuses that job lets sanction his benefits even though the job we offer him as a road sweeper isn't going to give him anything more than a minimum wage, which in turn will ensure he loses his house and will have to claim personal bankruptcy because his meager salary will put him on the poverty line.
Losing a job can be life destroying and that's why we have so many male suicides in this country. Finding the right job that won't throw you into deep financial difficulty could take a little time. To suggest such people are lazy ****ers is ridiculous and cruel. Its not only the people who have been missed out on education or continually scrounged off the system that find themselves unemployed and having to claim.

he has my sympathy. Maggie thatcher destroyed 1.5 million industrial jobs forever. she was a sadist. its much harder for a guy like this , a specialist in his field suddenly out of work like the miners....male suicides are a massive issue I always bring up. theyyre worse because women get 95% of the funding for support and charities as well as enormous more being spent on their welfare and health. men should be more priotised and their mental health should see more money spent on it...men kill themselves at 4 times the rate fo women and in post industrial wales male suicides are up 23% and this didn't even make the 10 oclock news , theyre busy talking about lineswomen getting heckled by idiots. typical feminazi liberal biased bbc bulls*it.....heckling is a bigger news than mass suicides? insane and profoundly sexist
now my advice to a man like that is that if he can find the spirit in himself to climb off the canvas to find work, albeit lesser work and lesser paid, anything is better than benefits.....whilst hes in work he will be meeting people and socializing more....he may refind a zest for life..who knows whilst in work he may find a person or an opportunity better suited to his needs...this surely wont happen at home with the curtains drawn on benefits.....men in this country are far more discriminated against than women, far far far more. there is less support, theres far more economic pressure on men too....men MUST work. if they don't they risk losing everything and having their wives throw them out and losing their home their kids wife and career all at the same time. this is exactly why male suicised are at record highs across the entire western society.....oh and they say men should talk about it...I AM talking about it and I get shouted down as being sexist for doing so. proving men cant win, no wonder so many kill themselves
