I Feel very strongly that RADIO 2 are too often putting down those on benefit it feels like every issue touches on Blaming those unfortunate to be on benefit as though it there own fault




l am on benefit ESA SICKNESS BENIFIT



l have worked most of my adult life



l was a senior community and youth worker



l have worked and now walk with many who are unemployed (I mean we are walking around our area trying to survive, getting an angle on life and how to cope).



since l started work in 1974 l have listened to the slot that is now JV



it worries me the way the issue of those on benefit often in my view comes around to blame



RADIO 2 do not ever appear to me to explore technical benefits



or challenge the real factual view that governments bring down the unemployment figures and amount saved on benefit



radio 2 is part of a media that promotes view that benefit is a choice and people are living glorias better of life on benefit...



it happens often with the show



almost as often as we hear a crap David bowie album track/or Albert Costello track. so that a lot
