These posts are so misguided it's actually quite astonishing. You are generalising every single person receiving benefits and branding them all into one category.

Thousands of benefits claimants are people that have worked all their days and now have the bad luck of losing their jobs, they have paid into the system all their lives and have a right to claim the help they need until they get back on their feet, to say they feel entitled to other peoples money is completely ridiculous.

Of course there are people who abuse the system and don't want to work, and it's up to the DWP to find out who those people are and deal with them so maybe they should put some effort into that rather than giving jobcentre staff targets for sanctioning people? The thread was made about the way the DWP are handing out unrealistic targets to claimants (people that are desperate to find work) for the sole purpose of sanctioning their benefits when they fail to meet the targets.

So do you have an actual opinion on that or are you just here to insult jobseekers?
