The Work Programme and the search for ‘hidden jobs’ – video
Is work and pensions minister Maria Miller right to say ‘there isn’t a shortage of jobs’? John Harris goes behind the scenes at the government’s Work Programme in Warrington, meeting some unemployed people and those tasked with helping them find jobs. He then dusts off his CV and goes hunting for ‘hidden jobs’ in the town

lol at the “adviser” on this video: “the application process has changed, there is “opportunities”, there are different ways of approaching employers to get work, to get experience”. Yeah like working your socks of for nothing on some “work trial”/”work placement” while scum like Anna Dutton and her scum bosses trouser “shed loads of cash” Anna Dutton – you and the abominable welfare-to-work/fare/house industry are SCUM! Burn in Hell!
