@Hossylass@msparsley@BBCBreaking @knitpuppy@ONS 900,000 Sanctioned Or 750,000+ Appeals Claiments Making Unemployment Around 4.8 Million -
@Georgenecs@msparsley@BBCBreaking @knitpuppy@ONS Unemployment falling is possibly the vaguest indicator they could use, popular soundbite -
@Hossylass@msparsley@BBCBreaking @knitpuppy@ONS Please Also Bear In Mind Tories Changed The Way Unemployment Is Calculated. -
@Georgenecs@msparsley@BBCBreaking @knitpuppy@ONS I am unsure what you mean... they use those on JSA, who are not on WP, MWE, etc

@BBCBreaking@ONS what is it when you add in all the people sanctioned, not counted or dead because they killed themselves? Bullshit figures -
@Absurd13t
@BBCBreaking@ONS and why are they sanctioned ? Think you need to look look at the detail -
@RyoxonTricky Yes, do look at the detail. They are sanctioned for being 1 minute late. Or going to a funeral. Sounds fair. Arse biscuit.
-
@Absurd13t punctuality is important .. And maybe explain if going to a funeral rather than just not turn up ... Some people this country ..
-
@RyoxonTricky @Absurd13t They did explain, it didn't make any difference.
-
@msparsley @Absurd13t and obviously this is the nasty Tories fault ...
