Should unemployed be forced to work?
Long-term unemployed people will be forced to accept work placements or lose their benefits, the government has warned. Is this unfair on those who have genuine trouble finding work, or do you think it is necessary to stop work-shy layabouts from sponging off the state?

No why should they - why do you all think umemployed long term means drunks, drugs and layabouts, you should find out the real stuff that goes on. Yes some do fall into that catergory but not all. Do all you who slag others off know what it is like not to be able to get a job? Some employers do not even reply to applications, in fact over the past 6 months I have applied for 60 jobs and have only got 2 interviews and 7 replies.I got mad redundant and have not much hope of getting employment because I am in my late 50s. It is demeaning having to go and sign on and be labled lazy. So shut your silly gobs
