Not surprised with the UK figures, hard to find jobs around here.

in my country the caydh is 375 dollar per week for single people. and they give you less than 30 dollars per week if you are illegal immigrant. thousands of welfare and sex tourism comes from south and eastern europe. ireland is one of wealthiest countries in the world unfortunately its one of the top countries with no job opportunities, immigration is very resttricticted it takes 7 years or more to get permission to live or work in the country if you are asylum seeker.

So all you do is collect cayd?

Bullshit about there are no jobs. There are plenty of jobs if you know where to look, youve got an attractive skillset and you are geographically mobile. The economy is expected to grow by a strong 3% this year.

Those that dont have education sign up for support service that helps them find jobs and they get caydh until they find a job.

You mean to tell me you actually believe that there are no jobs in the second largest city of the UK? GTFOH with that bullshit. There are currently circa 65,893 jobs being advertised in greater Birmingham.

- Do you have work experience?
- Have you applied for every and all jobs that you could?
- Are you willing to travel/make yourself geographically mobile?
- Are you willing to work your way up the ladder?
- Are you worthy of employment... i.e. are you punctual, reliable, have a good working ethos, good communicator?

If Polish who dont speak a word of English can get jobs, so can you.

FYI the Polish are filling up the job centres and others are returning.

Do you have work experience?

This is the biggest factor, vast majority of cases employers only take up experienced employees, as for the numbers you have posted you have to take into account of those who are applying for these same jobs.
