...and I disagree totally, that 'unemployed people with families to support should be number 1 priority when it comes to re-skilling and re-employment.'
Single people, who incidentally pay more in tax when they are working, than married people with dependent children, should have equally fair access to jobs, and retraining...if needed.
You can retrain, and retrain, and retrain, but eventually it might be a case of doing any job you're lucky enough to get, that will mean you can pay your way in life.
I once had a job shovelling, rhymes with bit, in Clayton-le-Moors, before I ended up flying all over the world, meeting the great and the good. When I wasn't sat in my plush office in Knightsbridge, telling a team of assistants what to do.
