With the increase in part-time work and the decrease of full-time work this will happen more and more. All this means that the figures for those unemployed and claiming benefits are not now the point. It would probably be better to get the figures for those claiming housing benefit which would tell us how many people are not on a living wage which is more useful.

We all know that drugs and anti-depressants are not the answer and that the quality of life in this country is the important thing. Let us hope that when the economy finally bounces back (if) that our society and country isn't broken beyond repair.
