can you claim job seekers whilst registering as a childminder and finding clients?
i am in the process of registering, and someone asked today why i didnt claim job seekers (thought never entered my head to be honest) but i dont know if i would be able to as im not actually seeking work, im waiting to register (and have been told this could be upto 3-4 months as the crbs are taking ages!)
and then i have to find children to look afer. we have just bougth a house that need loads of work doing to it so the extra income would be a bonus, i have written to several nurseries in the area for temp work but none have any vacancies.
im not the sort to claim benefits and do nothing (i have worked since i was 16 and only gave up after complications in my pregnancy and then moving house to a whole new area) but as that someone said..i have paid taxes so why not?
im planning on ringing the job centre office but wondered if anyone else could help. thx in advance x
keyboard - i have certificates, most than more childminders, given that i was a nursery manager for 10 years, have studied childcare at uni have my first aid and the certficate needed to childmind!! and with the prices of houses/fuel etc im sure im not the only one who is struggling with finances! just because im enquiring about job seekers, doesnt mean i am some kind of scrounger, out to live on handouts, and not lift a finger to work! so dont take that tone with me you judgemental tosser!

what are the implications if you give up work to look after your kids?
Been toying with this idea for a while and I can't find a solution .
My current employer is cutting back on expenses and has already laid one of my colleagues off , I was told that i would have to take a pay cut and return my company car and take a wage cut due to the business struggling.
I'm a single parent so without the car its a bind to get the children back and forward to school (they are quite young )
I am looking at other jobs I am now office bound and cannot get to interviews and am worried that if I jack in that i will not be entitled to any benefits in the unlikeley scenario that I do not get another job elsewhere.

Are voluntary organisations flexible when it comes to working hours?
Today I have just been offered a job as an advice support worker with the legal advice bureau..
My office hours will be 9.30am - 4.30pm. However, I have two children and my local creche is only open 9:30 - 3pm.
I will have to tell my employer, but should I tell her immediately? Husband says I should wait a bit, but surely my employer needs to know these things asap.
I am not sure exactly when he suggests I should tell her (can't get hold of him right now), but I am not sure of the benefits of telling her later. I wanted to tell her before my interview actually, but my husband persuaded me that it may jeopardise my chances of being employed. I really want the role, so I didn't mention it to her.
What do you people think? Is it a big deal? Will a voluntary organisation be more flexible?

Hi,
I have been told by my local CAB office to claim DLA for my son who is disabled. He's 70% deaf and wears two hearing aids, has been in hospital with kidney trouble twice in the past year and suffers from really bad panic attacks he refuses to go out.
Before people have a go at me for claiming benefits let me assure you that both my wife an I work Full-Time and care for two children. We're claiming as it can be difficult to finance our sons needs out of our own pocket and feel if the government can offer support then we would be glad of their help.
After speaking with people they have told me I'm likely to be refused, so I'm not sure if to go ahead and claim. Can you give me your opinions on DLA and if you think he would get it?
Thankyou
John

Have been told to apply for Income support. 1 adult and 3 children – what is the “rate” am new to DHSS system?
Worked all my life and reduced to this. My daughter thinks there must be another way as she is at college and says she will now have to attend a weekly meeting if we go on benefit. Unfortunatley current circumstances have forced this situation and I feel terrible going onto beneifit as it is. She says I'm letting the family down if I go onto benefit - I can't win - but we have to eat. It will be as temporary as it can be as I intend to apply for every job going. My daughter also works P/T after college and at w/e - I've brought her up to feel work is vital and not be a scrounger - and here I am now - a scrounger !! I feel like a hypocite
How much will we get for 1 adult and 3 children please. The thought of sitting in these open plan offices baring my sole is too much to bear

Is my sister being mean or am I being over-sensitive?
I lost my 18 month old daughter and my husband 5 years ago. They drowned. She fell in, he jumped in after her and I can't swim so I ran for help but I don't speak Spanish and the help arrived too late.
Anyway I haven't worked since that day and my sister is also on benefits but in her case it is because she has 5 children by 5 different men and is a drug addict and alcoholic.
She keeps telling me to 'get over it' but it isn't that easy. I'm never going to forget my beautiful daughter or wonderful husband and I resent that she is telling me how to live my life.
In truth, I do wish that I could get better but I resent the fact that she is telling me what to do when she doesn't even care about the fact that she is on benefits. I want to have a proper life. I want to get married and have another baby, I don't want to be on benefits.
I want to get an office job and to learn how to type and use email and stuff like that.
I just don't know where to start?

So who, according to the Tories, is “doing the right thing”?
According to my local Tory party candidate's leaflet (yes Tory Candidates do exist in the South Wales Valleys!!!) one of the Tories' promises is to "support people who do the right thing".
I must admit to being rather baffled by this, the "right thing" being such a subjective concept. I mean, who decides the definition of "the right thing" and who therefore gets the support?
Take my family for instance. We're married, one child and one on the way, own our own house and both work (or I did until I lost my job at the end of the March due to the company conveniently deciding to "downsize" our office after I told them I was pregnant). I will be looking for work again after this baby is born. I chose to work part time only after having my son so that I could "do the right thing" and raise him at home as much as possible until he is school age (he's 3).
We don't waste money on stupid things, but we're not high earners and as such often struggle (especially at the moment on only my husband's wage - I claim no benefits). As such, we find Tax Credits incredibly helpful. I will probably apply for a Surestart grant as well.
(calm yourselves, my Tory friends, however, I did not get pregnant with the express intention of accessing these goodies! Neither do I intend to live on them.)
Also, due to our lower income we have not been able to save over the last few years and as such we have nothing yet put aside for our "old age" other than our house (which being a terrace in the the Valleys isn't worth an awful lot!). Hopefully this will be remedied over the next few years.
So are we "doing the right thing" according to the Tories? Will they be "supporting" us? I mean, we're married and not living in a council house on income support . . .don't drink, smoke, take drugs or watch Jeremy Kyle . . . . but hey we haven't got much cash and can't save and you know how much they hate people who don't save or are low paid . . .
I am totally confused. I wish the Conservatives would be a little clearer with their judgements on other peoples' lifestyles . . .

what do you think of these policy’s?
Britain suffers from more than 27,000 crimes per day, or more than ten million crimes per year – the direct result of decades of softly-softly politically correct policing and a failed social engineering policy which has put the rights of yobs and criminals above that of victims.
According to the Office for National Statistics’ British Crime Survey of 2008, 22 percent of people in Britain will be the victim of some crime during the course of a single year.
To combat this shocking state of affairs, the British National Party seeks a return to traditional standards of law enforcement, combined with social reform directed at addressing the root causes of criminal behaviour.
To this end, ******* crime and justice policy will:
- Free the police and courts from the politically correct straitjacket which is stopping them from doing their jobs properly;
- End the liberal fixation with the “rights” of criminals and replace it with concern for the rights of victims – and the right of innocent people not to become victims;
- Re-introduce corporal punishment for petty criminals and vandals;
- Restore capital punishment for paedophiles, terrorists and murderers as an option for judges in cases where their guilt is proven beyond dispute (such as with DNA or other compelling evidence).
At the same time, the ******* recognises that decades of social welfare dependence – encouraged by disastrous Labour and Tory policies – which is the primary cause of social delinquency, must be brought to an end.
Social reform is therefore also required. Workfare, not welfare, except to the neediest, should be the norm. Only in this way can the cycle of social deprivation, which is the primary cause of indigenous criminality, be broken.
To this end, the ******* will introduce a system of workfare for those in unemployment benefit for more than six months with compulsory work and training in return for decent payment.
The socialist building block housing concrete monstrosities which blight our urban areas and which are the breeding ground for delinquency and crime will be torn down and replaced with decent housing which encourages the stable family unit.
Non british crime – rapidly becoming a serious problem, as the knife and gun crime epidemic spreading throughout our major cities – will be dealt with in terms of ******* immigration and identity policy.
Overcrowding in prisons will be solved by the deportation of the tens of thousands of foreign criminals to serve their sentences abroad in their home countries. This act alone will free up to 70 percent of jail space in many prisons.
The ******* will also:
- Make prisons more austere and make criminals serve their full sentences. Offenders will be made to understand that they are being punished and not rewarded with a state-subsidised holiday for their crimes;
- Use electronically tagged “chain gangs” to provide labour for projects such as coastal defences;
- Introduce automatic prison sentences for all repeat offenders;
- Put police back on the streets and remove their current political correctness shackles;
- Allow victims of crime full freedom to defend themselves and their property;
- Make joint custody of children the norm in divorce cases;
- Grant anonymity to those accused of crimes until they are convicted;
- Make police concentrate on real criminals and serve the public, not the government’s political aspirations.
The ******* alone recognises that crime must be tackled on two levels: firstly by effective policing, and secondly by addressing the root social causes of crime, both british and non british in origin.
Addressing these two issues will solve the crime problem.

Help with Economics homework (part 2)?
I have been given the following exercise to complete but cannot attend the next seminar to go through the answers and get the explanations. What answers would you choose and why?
Thank you! xx
6) Mr Peesely is a farmer living in Ulster (UK) in a town bordering another country, the Republic of Ireland where his friend Mr Edams farms. Mr Peesely takes a box of sausages which would sell for £100 (110 euro) in Ulster across to the Republic and exchanges the box for Irish sausages from Mr Edams’farm. He brings these sausages into the UK, to Ulster, and sells them for £120. The impact on the GDP in the UK would be the following:
a. UK GDP will rise by £120 ,
b. UK GDP will decrease by £20,
c. UK GDP will rise by £20
d. UK GDP will remain unaffected.
7) Lady Chatterley used to pay her gardener a salary of £100 thousand per year, and free accommodation in her garden shed. Having heard that Lady Chatterley has fallen on hard times having lost money in an Irish bank that has gone bust, he offers his gardening services out of love and affection, receiving no pecuniary benefit in return, and pays her £10 thousand pounds rent for the cottage where he had hitherto lived free of charge. In consequence, the GDP as recorded in the national income accounts will
a. increase by £10 thousand
b. decrease by £100 thousand
c. neither increase nor decrease.
d. decrease by £90 thousand.
In the fast growing economy of Solovia, some of the working age hitherto unemployed adults move away from their family homes in villages and obtain employment in cities. Their parents are left behind and the state engages village youths, also hitherto unemployed, to care for the elderly people that were previously looked after by their children. These newly employed carers are paid by raising the rate of income tax. In consequence, the national income accounts will register the following for the GDP:
a. increase
b. decrease
c. no change.
d. none of the above
9) Consider the following stylised model of the economy of Solovia at
equilibrium:
Y = C + S and S = I
Where Y = output, C = Consumption, S = Saving, I = investment, and all of them are measured in the same currency, Solovian florint. Examining data for national income accounts, experts who have been recruited by the Office of National Statistics for having passed their first year examination in Quantitative Methods report that the consumption function is as follows:
C = 1000000 + (1/4) Y
REQUIRED:
The parameter “propensity to consume” is (Choose the best answer from below):
a. 1-0.25 = 0.75
b) ¾
c) 0.25
d) 5/4
The Keynesian multiplier is
a. 1/4
b. ¾
c. 4/3
d.0.75
10) Because intermediate goods, goods that are used in the production of other goods, are excluded from GDP, the following will be excluded in measuring the GDP:
a. cost of airlines tickets incurred in going on holiday.
b. drinks purchased at restaurants by public relations firms to entertain their clients.
c. food purchased at restaurants during holidays.
d. all of the above.
The answers I got were C, D, A, no idea and A, although Economics is not my best subject by far so I've no idea if I'm right!
