    Gordon IS a moron

    This golden hello plan he announced has a fundamental flaw, as pointed out on R4 this morning. The Govt will give a company £2500 to take on someone who has been on the rock and roll for 6 months. In this economic environment, it was pointed out the a business owner will not actually WANT to take on staff, regardless of the £2500.

    More bollocks from El Gordo. But we knew that...

      How long do you have to have them on the books for? Possible (harsh) plan B. But maybe that's what they're shooting for......

      The number of people on long term unemployment benefit has fallen..... They're now all in the short term employed numbers..... I blame the credit crunch.....

        Exactly, he'ss not being a moron, but cleverly doing something which looks very good (it's a nice scheme in principle) but will cost him very little in the near future.

          I normally would agree with you, but this is so transparent even Sun readers should be able to see it for what it is - total tulipe...

            During the 30's, The Nazi's simply removed all the "undesirables" from work, and replaced them with good, solid Aryans, whilst not including the ousted in the official figures.
            Unemployment figures went through the floor. Everyone (assuming you were white, and not Jewish, Gipsy, homosexual, or anything else on their ignore list) was happy.
            Nowadays we just shift people from JSA to Incapacity Benefit, and don't count the IB numbers. Sorted.

              How could he have known that when he thought up the policy? Your anger is confusing you thoughts (as Yoda might say).
              The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

              But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                So when the JSA claimants are at the highest level since NL took power, does that not suggest we are doubly fooked?

                  People who have been unemployed for more than 6 months are probably there for a reason.

                  It is pointless in a time of massively increasing unemployment to try and get the long term unemployed off the dole queue. It might have worked to an extent a few years ago but certainly not now.
