Dear Ken is a national treasure, as is the screen writer Paul Laverty

Dear Sane,

Sounds like a great film, highlighting the so out of touch Tories, as someone who has experienced this Job centre form filling nonsense, I would just like to add, the people who are actually employed in these Job centres, they are so brow beaten by bureaucracy, you can see it in their faces, they don't want to stop anyone's benefits, it really is a crying shame to watch a fellow Glaswegian losing his/her ability to laugh at the absurdity of Tory sanctions, everyone on benefits must be a sponger >:( :(

The majority of the unemployed in this country want to work, I have witnessed them sitting, waiting for that dreaded interview, have I filled in this particular form correctly, the job centre employee asking, did you phone enough companies, did you work on your CV, how many interviews did you actually attend, the Job centre employee asking, you had to make the decision to feed your kids or use the money to travel to your interview.

Maybe it is time to ditch the Tory and maybe the Labour party, wankers that have not seen that world has moved on.

Gonnagle.
