Jobcentre Plus Caught Lying About Number of Job Vacancies
By Keelan Balderson | Feb 17, 2012 | Economy, UK Politics | 2 Comments

With the ongoing loophole that allows the country’s top retail chains to employ staff without paying them, it should come as no surprise that Jobcentre Plus have just been caught falsifying the number of jobs available.

Seems DWP is up to its old tricks again. On the day the DWP Press Office announces a “Rise in employment and vacancies shows a stabilising labour market” the 9621 vacancies for that day showed some major concerns especially how Jobcentre Plus is using the job database as a spamming ground for work placements, job search sessions and misc “opportunities”.

The latest figures also show that there are more jobs in the economy. With 476,000 vacancies available at any one time, this is a rise of 11,000 on the three months to October 2011.

So how much of these 476,000 “vacancies” are real?

No matter how many snobby BBC shows or Daily Mail articles talk about the work-shy, it doesn’t change the fact that the record unemployment in the UK is down to the corrupt financial system and its destruction of the economy, not laziness. If the departments tasked to get people back in to work can’t even tell the truth then nothing is going to change.

    75% of jobs that are advertised don’t actually exist, its just Agency’s playing the system like they do. I did warn people what would happen if they continued to let Agency’s deal with low skilled labour after the forced expansion of the EU upon us. They have drained all the money out of the economy and its just getting worse. Last year company’s was paying Agency’s £20 an hour for full time staff whereas this year the Agency’s are now charging these company’s £30 an hour and the company’s are happy to pay the extra because they get staff supplied for the exact amount of hours they need them, if you sign up to an agency they will phone you and say “I’ve found you a good job but it starts in half an hour, when you get there you’ll get told its a 4 hour shift but there could be more 4 hour shifts in the future, maybe even some overtime today if we haven’t finished it in 4 hours.” BULLSH#T! GET US OUT! NO ONE SPEAKS ENGLISH! IM SICK TO DEATH OF MULTICULTURALISM! WE AS A NATION MUST TAKE CONTROL! STAND UP! STAND PROUD! NEVER SIT DOWN AGAIN!

    Well we all know that governments regularly change the “way” they count unemployment (and everything else too) but luckily most people see through it.
    I count it from the other direction: First take the UK Population (even there the official figure must be way wrong) I guess 65million at least, subtract the retired and the under working age people and then subtract the actual number in proper paid week-in week-out regular work.
    You do the sums for yourself but you will find the total is more like 6-7 million (10%) than the official 2 point something or whatever the latest lies are saying. Rule of thumb these days seems to be take official figures and treble them in the bad direction for the actual true amounts – example inflation 4-5% ? not on the actual streets where we know we get about 15%
    B.Liars the lot of them!
