        @Rob_Max_Lisa @wilsoncov @BBCBreaking @ONS. Aye, there's the rub. We need parties that aren't tied to corporate greed and corruption.

        @BBCBreaking @ONS Probably due in part to benefit sanctions, agency work and part time temporary jobs.

        @BBCBreaking I hope the @ONS did not count those sactioned by IDS as in work. That would be insulting as well as dishonest.
