Unemployed people who were formerly self employed and who fail the means test are barred by Mz Burton and her department from Registering as Unemployed on the Live Register of Unemployment and so cannot qualify for any of the schemes she is referring. Worse, if they do try to start a new business they find themselves competing against other other start up business who are being subsidised by these SW supports.
Joan Burton is effectively operating a system of unemployment apartheid. She is the Minister for Unemployment Apartheid.
