Plaintiff claimed being forced to work stopped her voluntary work. Shouldn't see have been pursuing paid work if she needed benefits?
@jackschofield Perhaps. But if she spent the time doing her voluntary work seeking paid work, would the economy not be better off?

@bazzacollins Yes, but what do you think the real unemployment rate is out here in the cold? (My family has gone from 3 jobs to 0 jobs.) -
@jackschofield Know it's tough, but don't understand why letting folk elect when/where they work and claim benefits is a good thing? -
@bazzacollins Being forced to do voluntary work or community service is one thing. Subsidising a money-making corporation is another. -
@jackschofield I agree that shelf-stacking for supermarkets is poor, but I agree with the principle of the policy. -
@bazzacollins If people *choose* unpaid work experience, that's fine with me. They shouldn't be bullied into bad, zero-paid commercial work.
