New scheme tells jobless: Work for free or lose benefits for THREE years

[mikebratcher69]

Work unpaid or lose all your benefits for three years - this is the new message from the government to the long-term unemployed.

Employment minister Chris Grayling said he is convinced a new 'work for dole' scheme would help to reduce Britain's £4 billion benefit bill.

Those who refuse to take part in the scheme, which would see those who have been unemployed for more than three years work unpaid for six months, would not receive any benefit money for up to three years.
