Some of us had serious doubts about Government statistics on the level of unemployment, this article lifts a corner of the carpet under which some of them have been swept!!!
Uj when they moved as many from jsa onto sick pay, back in the 90s then decided to push them back onto jsa with punitive measures if they couldn't work.
At those points I decided to ignore the statistics because they push people about to make them work for whatever point they are trying to make.
