Tougher Benefit Sanctions may be worse than the ‘highland clearances’ in England's rural areas and fishing towns.

At a meeting of Northumberland County Council’s Care and Wellbeing committee set up to help the Counties diverse communities, councillors were issued with a report on the jobless in Northumberland  in the report were stark figures have revealed that tens of thousands of people in Northumberland are not working due to economic inactivity. Councillors also learned that 7.6% of the Counties population had no qualifications at all.

Cramlington Conservative Councillor Dr Paul Ezhilchelvan, a born lucky spoon fed life long learner, went on a rant and said: "I was horrified to read that 7.6% of the working age population have no educational qualifications. I asked what that means and they don't even have GCSEs."That is appalling, because their lives are wasted. Their future is demolished by this, whatever the reason.

"We need to address this issue. They could be filling in positions that we are finding it hard to fill in."

His unwanted, dismal and abysmal rant against local society lines up perfectly with how his Government views rural and fishing communities in general and how his shockingly superior outburst is sure to get him a knighthood from the sunakatists and borisites he obviously lines up with.

The treatment of farmers, horticulturalists, meat and fishing industry workers has been abysmal following BREXIT but this article isn't another attack against brexiteers, no its a worrying view of what the carpetbaggers in high office have in train to ensure even when they are stripped from power that they will be able to dine on the wealth they have divisively removed from others, that wealth is their lifestyles and the communities they dwell in.

The nasty party members, borisites and sunakatist Tories are planning to strip the countryside and coastal towns and villages of their working class populations once and for all to ensure the danger to their growth plans for personal wealth aren't stymied by softy Conservatives who may still have an unhardened heart.

The Tories who have led us as a nation to believe that every benefit claimant and unemployed person is nothing but a scrounger who is bleeding the state and who throws away their walking stick and dances the flamenco when they get off the plane in Alicante. They also insist that person is your next door neighbour and their current plans will show that the extension of their partition politics will break communities even faster than both the irish famines and the highland clearances.

Red blooded nasties are baying for tougher benefit sanctions to force the rural working class into jobs well away from their current homes leaving lifestyles they have developed and satisfied on very low incomes bolstered by benefits (still leaving them on very low incomes), forcing them onto a jobs market and into work that neither suits them or their new employers. Leaving properties worth small fortunes that Tory carpetbaggers can pick up on the cheap and sell on to those with cash seeking the quieter life.

The blues have doubled down on the benefit sanctions issue this week.

On plans to ramp up benefit sanctions. Those sanctions result in 

claimants being fined if they do not meet job search requirements.

Its reported Chancellor Jeremy Hunt said he was toughening up on the application of benefit sanctions. More people will have to face having their benefits cut if they do not meet requirements and find a job. Single parents and carers will be scooped up in this latest attack.

They are also going to attack head on those claiming disability payments, even following a report to say that disabled people are regularly experiencing psychological distress as a result of undergoing the nasties health assessment call ins.

Its expected that the distance which people are expected to travel for interview will be extended leaving unemployed residents of rural and coastal fishing communities in great difficulty as the lack of public transport and more people in these communities on average have less access to a vehicle in the impossible position of having to give up their homes or be starved out. There is no compassion in this harrying of the rural poor.

Councillor Dr Paul Ezhilchelvan’s rant should have been to ask how do the rural poor get to job interviews? and how do we encourage 7.6% of our population back into education? and the big if, can we entice the economically inactive members of society to return to work? As many have found themselves in the position they are in as their jobs were offshored or they were replaced with imported labour or even made redundant from the Council Ezhilchelvan represents all traits of a failing non-thinking Tory Government and Tory Councillors nationwide.
