    while the episode has appeared,comments left by viewers’ regarding the training provider have now been removed,these were for the greatest part not complementary and emma certainly did not have any solutions and does not fare well in this program.certainly not worth the 700 million in taxpayers money. given “do you think i am a genius” and looking clueless as a solution is beyond belief, given the sums involved.the danger is the targets when missed will be taken out on the unemployed at the center through abuse.

    as well as the pixeling of a group member i think the piece has been cut.where mark who has just lost his job only to shortly after view’s a member of the landscape company with a strimmer outside his house along the pavement upsets him and makes a comment as to the age of the employee in appearance,and goes on why he (mark) was laid off and the other employee is kept on.his anger at the feeling of being used is understandable in the circumstances,money given to a4e,no doubt the landscaping company receives a payment of at least £500 for long term unemployed people.given this it may well work out the period he worked for them was funded by the taxpayer also.this is classed as a “self marketing voucher” personally i dont think its a good ideal.

    Benefit Busters.Breath of fresh air.Exposing what Realy goes on with these so called training providers.The way these heartless excuses for humanity break down a human soul by constant belittling and patronising individuals who are almost certainly at a low ebb before they where even forced to attend is..in my opinion Sick. I imagine the makers of this reality tv shows intention was ,to spread some more propaganda vile..depicting unemployed people as worthless scum .But the desired effect has backfired .Now the mass population know of the pointlessness of new deal and degradation of a human being who just so happens to not have a job.
