Oh, and more good news on the job hunting front in the UK;
The one service left to help unemployed disabled people back into work, Remploy, is being cut because the DWP say that a third of its budget is being spent on specialist disability employment...and that's too much. I'd say as a client of Remploy not sure how leaving me to sit in front of a PC by myself job hunting could cost the DWP a third of their budget...but then under cameron the DWP's budget is 27 pence -_-
