Now there's some great ideas. Force someone to travel 2 hours each way to a job they don't like, while denying someone living closer who would like the job, and keeping them as a dole statistic.
But I suppose it's seen as "doing something".
If there really were these thousands upon thousands of mythical proper jobs just going begging, we wouldn't have this situation in the first place. The ones with "attitude" who don't really want to work, are merely reducing the genuine competition for the few jobs the many are seeking.
I agree and tend to think that it's the minority who have ":attitude" along with the non existant jobs that gives the genuine job seekers a bad public image (to those who aren't well informed) which would/could enable a Government to get public support to believe that those on benefits don't deserve them and/or get too much
