Get where you are coming from but there's an element now in this country who are basically unemployable, a lot of it is covered up with disability benefits.......IE junkies getting pip or Scottish adult disability payment.....( I just don't class them as disabled)......these people are pretty much unemployable, successive govts and poor personal choices have let them become unemployable.

But a full time drug addict should be able to claim full pip or adult disability £650 per 4 weeks, ESA ( old incapacity) £115 per fortnight, no council tax, no rent, free food obviously at the foodbanks......and their drugs for zip.....throw in a bairn or two possibly getting some disability benefit and cud easily be talking 20k per year tax free.

The guy that will be hurt from a work coach will be the guy that's a wee bit slower, maybe dosent have great tekky skills or form filling ability or social skills......he will get turned over and sanctioned.
