    That sums up my experience too. If they ever bring me in involuntary, I will ask them where they between 2010 and 2014, when I was still able to be helped, and indeed asked repeatedly for that help.

    The offer of voluntary work coaching is open to all. The responsibility of how you want to respond is up to you. I would say that ask me 6 or 12 months ago I would have said ulterior motives, all the way.

    It is hard to change a life time of fighting for everything in one go.

    Trust and the ability to exchange information without repercussions further down the line is still some way off. But by building bridges and talking, if the government don't realsie their errors by now, then they never will.

    It is a two edged sword, where benefit claimant believe the world owes them everything, and if they can get it they will apply, even though they don't really need it. If the system of earning a living wage is changed to add some thing extra so you are not working to live, but living to work, because you can raise a family, and can go on holidays, buy a car, go to the pub with friends.

    Just remember your a long time dead….. So what is wrong with 'extra hours to get luxury's for you and your family…. These are the way we used to be so lets get back and get meaningful work that pays, not just the basic wage but shows employees that the company is in this for the long haul, and actually want to increase profits, not by paying less, but keeping people skilled and employed.

    Every one wins. We pay taxes, they pay NI, we get a NHS that is free at source, invested profits in the company increase production or care, and so the wheel turns.
