UK news. Should welfare benefits increase the longer a person is on them?

I can't see who's posting this at the moment but I'll hazard a guess...

If the claimant can show they've been hitting the job application/interview targets and can provide feedback as to why they were not hired each time and the feedback doesn't show any intentional and/or unreasonable sabotage of the interview by the claimant, and as long as no offers of employment have been turned down, then the welfare payments should increase in line with inflation every year.

No Unemployment benefits should be reduced for all under 60 to force the lazy to get Jobs

I am a Brown man was Born in London

and never been Unemployed never received unemployment benefits and i was expelled from school at 15

If I can Find a Job so can everyone else

You could reward failure this way but I prefer to reward them with concentration camps, where these LOVELY people are rewarded with free food and water plus hard work with the object of finding these oppressed unemployed people a reason to live. I'm sure they would prefer this to hanging around the streets supping cans of Special Brew and stealing from shops in a bid to stay alive.

I doubt job seekers will get anything more next April but MP's have allowed themselves a 11% pay rise

Ask Ian Duncan Smith.

I think if someone is on jaa for six years we should look at why. The investment in training them, coaching them in interview skills and mentoring them, plus the investment in their mental health should increase, but not the money they recieve.

Welfare benefits are there to ensure no one starves when they find themselves between jobs, or unable to earn due to illness or disability

They are not a career choice

yes this is great, i am on the dole and considering all the obstacles they have put in my way i think i should get a raise for still being standing after all this time its a hard slogg these days

Only in line with Inflation

No they should decrease it might motivate them to get a job.
