Excellent read mate.

Makes some excellent points there...
Dole numbers fiddled for at least 30 years by all governments...just shoved onto another scheme count and hidden away....
Even by the official figures theres 9m people inactive...16-65 not working..in the UK...yet theres only 1.5m ??..claiming dole..
Years ago at school they told you it would be all leisure in the future...even showed you books with sailing boats..can't see many doing that mind..
Aye..and the retirement age...sawing wood and welding at 68 yo...most lads have had enough by then...
Only ways to try and help youself out without hurting others...oot the neet..
