Most of those concerned will have parents, but due to the "it's my right & I want everything now mentality !" Many would have struck out, with hands held outstretched wanting & the system, gawd luv 'em has doled it out hand over fist.

And where will these new homeless sleep?..not sure how it goes in Germany but this is how it will work here.. they will either live on the streets or be moved into expensive "bed and breakfast" and specially in the large cities.. saving money? the people claiming housing benefits in this country are not the ones living in luxury.. it's the private landlords who will reap those benefits.

It's guaranteed then is it ? That all those receiving support will in one stroke end up on the street ? Seems a little drastic to say the least, no I can't see that happening somehow.
I'd agree with you on the private landlords issue, some are taking the pish to put it mildly, but then there are others who are playing it straight. I'd say that the responsibility lies with the agencies paying out, they need to look again & get a grip where required.

Aw come one.. it's a pretty sure thing that some of those who loose housing benifit will end up on the streets.. and like I said those who don't will have to be housed in private bedsits or likely bed and breakfast "hotels" owend by private landlords and paid for by the taxpayer..I'm not sure which way you are looking at this but to me it does not work out as any way of saving money.. it's just an idealogy of the Tories.

As we speak we are getting on to almost 3 million unemployed in the UK..around 22% of that figure are under 24yrs old ..over 1 million..what percentage are workshy scroungers you and this government make them out to be?.
From day one this government have had only one aim and that is to make cuts in everything.. that includes any attempt of training our youngsters in the industry we need to survive in a world economy..it's the same old wing on a prayer market forces ideology they have always had ... and it's crap .

My mistake ..almost 1 million under 25yrs old.. a slight gliche on my part but still almost a 3rd of all unemployed.. not very good for the future and this is here and now.. will these figures get any better under this government?

No it shouldn't be allowed to carry on but neither should it be withdrawn, putting more people on the dole, something that Dumb and Dumber would love so they can carry on their tirade against the government, its a poor state of affairs when people are jumping through hoops doing hands stands a cheering when people lose their jobs, most of which was caused by their useless mates in the first place, just so they can gloat, now that really is the pits

The biggest increase in U.K. unemployment, happened between 2007 and 2009.
When we had a Labour government.
Here's a pretty little graph for you to look at, which clearly illustrates this.
Well, it does to those not wearing blinkers.
