    Calls to tackle long-term unemployment as Jobseeker numbers surge!


    One Nation Chief of Staff James Ashby raises concerns over a sharp rise in long-term Jobseeker recipients. Mr Ashby called for better job pathways, fairer wages, and improved education to address growing welfare dependency.
    “This is the biggest problem but it’s not just a labor issue, this has been building for the last decade,”
    “There should be no excuse, we’ve got around 660,000 people on unemployment benefits … but when you’ve got 50 per cent of them, now who have been on it for over two years, it’s unacceptable.“You can't continue calling it Jobseeker when people refuse to go and get a job.”


    OR is it a Brutal system? Both articles from News.com/sky.

    So are the unemployed victims or dolebludgers? Which narrative suits the neoconservatives more? (BTW - Army enlistments are up considerably..)

    DEWR, Services Australia unlawfully cancelled 964 Jobseeker payments, advocates liken scandal to Robodebt 2.0

    Advocates have hit out at the unlawful cancellations of nearly 1000 Jobseeker payments as being ‘Robodebt 2.0’ urging Labor to scrap the “brutal” system.
