    I love that it helps you see how little of the welfare payments are going to the unemployed, since that’s the part that concerns people the most.

      That’s a newer addition, when it first came out under a conservative Goverment, all welfare was grouped together.

        Classic Conservative tactic.

        “Evil, stupid, greedy-” stuffs pockets “-jobless, welfare scroungers!” stuffs pockets “Pensioners, vote for me to bring down our welfare spending!”
