Hunt warns of benefit cuts for people who won’t ‘actively look for work’ - Lemmy.world

There’s like 15 people in this country who could be looking for work and aren’t. How does inflicting revenge pain on them raise any sort of money for the rest of us?

They’re either lying, or utterly incompetent when it comes to understanding who’s in the welfare system.

Or both I guess.

You'd be surprised to find out that it's way more than 15 people. I've personally known at least a dozen who immigrated to the UK just because of the welfare system and they'd abuse it by getting paid for sitting on their ass all day.

This may come as a shock…but the 15 wasn’t meant to be taken literally.

I know right.
