(not satire – it’s Orwellian Britain today!)
A Jobcentre Plus worker has been sacked by the DWP for gross misconduct after setting up a Facebook page which encouraged people to post the names and details of people they suspected of fraudulently claiming benefits:

Looks like there might be such a thing as karma after all.

Please feel free to comment.
A Bit like the bloke a few years ago driving around, pretending to be a police officer, pulling people over and giving them a ticking off LOL

Judging by his comments on the page he is unrepentant. So a job as IDS’s bag carrier beckons. But then with a 58% fraud rate amongst the 2005-2010 cohort of mps vs 0.7% amongst dwp claimants he’ll find a new crusade.
Wonder if the dwp will investigate his work record to see how many fraudulent entries and sanctions he’d made about his clients….

Oh, wow. Think it’s safe to say that someone’s bought into the rhetoric with their life savings, there…
It’s bloody unfortunate that people can be so eager and even desperate to HATE something or someone that they’ll actively encourage other people to do the same, but this kind of thing is approaching a certain kind of militancy; they’re sharing information, this is how hate groups start organising, and it needs to stopped before it really boils over, or people will get hurt when it does. JC+ chucking him out of his job will probably only make him a martyr-figure to the loonies who think he’s right; now they’ll only cluster into a tighter-knit group, and get paranoid about ‘spies’.
It’s the 21st Century, not 1940s Germany — we should be above this. I hope Cameron, IDS and Co are proud of themselves for fostering this kind of hate in our country — but of course they are; ignorant shitheads like this guy are going above and beyond what even the Tories might have expected in their attitudes and behaviour.

I went to his site earlier this evening after someone shared this on a civil disobedience site, what a truly unpleasant and acerbic individual he is, gloating that he was only unemployed for 6 hrs before a job knocked on his door, utterly unrepentant and thoroughly smug. Unfortunately he doesn’t seem to want to participate in lively debate of an intellectual nature, instead he chose to block and ignore me, this shows the lack of intelligence he and his unpleasant cohorts subscribe to. Before being blocked, i was unfortunate to witness that he’d just reported some 50 of his fellow country folk just before xmas, knowing full well all benefits are stopped until investigation is carried through, he has delighted in ruining a family holiday for over 50 people. I wish heaven and hell existed, i truly do, shameful.

More like 1930’s Germany ….or ironically the DDR Communist East Germany where people were ” encouraged ” to shop people to the Stasi ….in some ! cases it confirms the cliche or occassional trusim that you can be so right wing , you meet the other side round the back as politics with or without a large P goes round in circles .
The overgrown public schoolboy Gideon Osborne must love all this divide and conquer nonsense working a treat .
However I don’t really believe the story about inviduals working for JCP , there would be that much institutionalised paronoia about the Official Secrets Act …everything seems so ridiculously contrived .
Though I can imagine there will be a big culture of fear and Concentration Camp management and / or mentality …i.e. as long as someone else is in trouble and it’s not me …shades of the 1990’s when privatisation was a very real threat to people’s livelhoods .
There’s been a few of these shill trolls recently ….you can spot the Unum ( formerly the outlawed Unum Provident ) and ATOS trolls sticking to a very regimented script a mile off .
I noticed in the Sun comments …before Murdoch dropped the free service and put them behind a paywall ……there has been a few shills ….people supposedly getting jobs as benefit fraud investigators and complaining that advance notice gives people opportunity to ” cover things up ” when compliance officers visit .
” Interesting “

I have the unpleasant job of working in a jcp. I come across scumbags likethis guy on a daily basis. I have no problem with letting dispicable people know they are dispicable. That’s why I have been sent to Coventry and excluded from all office events. The only people working on the front line now in jcps are the follow orders to a tee brigade. The sort of people that would volunteer to be state torturers if they got the chance. I’d love to spill the beans on what I know. Truely I would.

Karma ??, read KSJ’S peice ‘The Just World Fallacy at http://kittysjones.wordpress.com/2013/12/17/4581/, it may help you understand…
Did it not occur to you that the ‘co-worker’ could have complained to a superior because they felt some sense of injustice which gave rise to the need to complain?. What we do and how we react is driven by our traits like greed and compassion?, instincts that are the very core of our being? surely

Well, Amanda, I keep telling this vile filthster who runs this F/b page to seek out Paul White, a notorious fiddler of benefit. Essex boy by birth, would you believe!
Mr White has quite blatantly said he is a ‘benefit to society’ by benefiting from society, but has spent at least one month this year (July) signing in and skiving off. He claimed it was too hot to work! He manages to fiddle and scrounge to the tune of £1,500 pounds on a good week!
Surely you will agree he ought to be brought before justice? Apparently he has, as they say. ‘previous’.
He has several aliases, but his favourite is ‘lord’ Hanningfield…….

I very much doubt that the person ( s ) behind that FB group did work for the #DWP or #JCP …if any of their staff pulled a stunt like that …they’d be dragged into the HR office so quick their feet wouldn’t touch …you’d be in front of a panel of HEOs and SEOs and then frogmarched out of the building in front of ex colleagues and claimants by private on NMW or not much more security guards because of the OSA ( Official Secrets Act )
The DWP would also make things difficult for them afterwards …odd little ” coincidences ” …a lot of spiteful and vindictive and very institutionalised staff in post .
Also if you told porkies on your ” embellished ” CV / Application Form like #IDS has done …the same would happen …#PCS rep or no rep
You can spot the #Unum ( formerly the outlawed Unum Provident ) and #ATOS shill trolls a mile off …At the very best …the people behind it would be badly trained and poorly educated staff from one of those spivvy cowboy welfare to work firms like #A4e and that is being generous !
There’s been a few people claiming to work for the DWP in the Sun online comment pages before #Murdoch put a paywall up …it’s all so laughably amateurish
