I've seen several examples where jobcentreplus have driven claimants to despair through inefficient management of claims and unsympathetic treatment when people were at their sickest. My primary reason is I believe that the Department for Works and Pensions/jobcentreplus does not have the culture, skills or organizational efficiency to demonstrate their support for claimants throughout the relationship. In my view, by the time the policy has reached local civil service (jobcentreplus) offices and the (in)appropriate pressure to deliver results have kicked in, then I predict the outcome will be nothing like the legislation or the "helpful" glossy leaflet. I am deeply suspicious that the government can genuinely encourage disabled people in to work, in the kind of numbers that they are talking, through genuinely working in a supportive manner with people.

The disabled become a statistic rather than a person.

I wouldn't mind them 'helping' the disabled into work, but by the time the orders get down to the level of job centre worker they are turned into targets rather than help for individuals. I would love to go to India or somewhere and help build bridges or what ever. I think there should be a UK version of the 'Peace Corps'. I'd gladly do National Service, I tried for the army but failed the psych test. The others - who must be questioned why are they not doing anything - will then be conscripted into national service, where they would do non-combat work. I semi-support the national service claim, whereby anyone aged between 16 to 21 who is not on any disability/incapacity benefit not in work, an apprenticeship, or education must complete national service.Īn opt out is there for those who work, learn or do some sort of vocational skill. Yobs are the ones running roughshot over the government, rather than sitting back and doing nothing. What a crying shame if you ask some people… For others, this type of behavior is just fine.No no, what I meant was who sits back and does nothing because they cannot to protest against the governments treatment of them - I meant disabled people. It’s probably a serious mark against us that American sports have often paved the way for tolerance and empathy instead.

Oh, there are notable exceptions, (mostly at youth events and involving the parents) but for some reason the baseball, basketball, and football (sorry, I mean American Football) games are not quite the magnets for ethnic confrontation that football provides for other countries. Plus, our racial problems do not have the habit of erupting during or around sporting matches.
Yobs vs ycal full#
(That does not mean that it is not our full intent to try) In either case, trying to synchronize violent conflict around a soccer match would be extremely difficult, at least currently in this country. We would definitely be lacking in leftist skinheads most of our lefties are academic in nature, and probably opposed to team sports in principle as some sort of atavistic remnant of primitive warfare or something. I suppose we could scape together enough racists, but they are rarely interested in soccer to begin with. We would need to recruit plenty of violent racist skinheads for one team and violent anti – racist skinheads for another team (or have alternates, for the ideal synergy of ideologically – fueled confrontation, no matter who was playing). We’ll just need to keep them away from the great games at online casino USA when we do it…

Yobs vs ycal free#
On top of the lack of interest mentioned above, we’d have to institute a more thorough welfare state, in order to give our budding yobs plenty of guaranteed – income free time. So it seems that we just don’t have the right kind of fans to craft a proper squad of football yobs. It’s just that most of us don’t really care about it unless we’re playing, and few of us choose to play when we’re not at school but for the most part it is a sport that takes the sideline after youth… There are soccer teams at pretty much every school in the country evidence, hopefully, of our struggle to aspire to the International standard of evolved civilization. I mean, I played it as a kid, and we’re talking about a bygone age when ABBA was still just a crappy hit band instead of a crappy hit musical turned crappy hit film (long before online slots were around for our entertainment, of course!). Despite the fact that there is no ‘football culture’ (i.e., soccer culture) in the US to even begin to match the dazzling depth of football culture in other countries, we’re really rather familiar with the sport.
