What a cruel comment not everyone on jobseeker are bludges.
I worked hard for many years , then had surgery which went terribly wrong.
Cut a story short after one year off work and using up all my savings I had no choice but to go on jobseeker. Every 3 months I need to hand in a medical certificate and at 61 I would give anything to work again. I loved my job and love working but it is impossible.
I have been waiting 4 months after applying for DSP.
Not all of us want to be on jobseeker but have no choice

The brickie pointed at my arm in a sling and laughed the day I asked for a job. I worked two day hard to prove my worth mixing wheelbarrowing carting bricks one hand with a brick loader, raking out. I Stayed with him two years till my shoulder came good.
But not every job allows a person to do it. I read the article as able bodied people who don't want to work and just get the dole annoyed her. There are a lot of them>
BUT MOST just want employment as its good for the heart mind spirit as well as the pocket. I didn't feel she was having a shot at people who have genuine health issues, Thats how I read her comment, anyhow hey.
