Unemployment sucks...it's now been 5 months and it's doing my nut in. It wouldn't be so bad if Loyd's bank hadn't offered me a job the other day, and then withdrew the offer before the paperwork arrived!
As for UK unemployment benefit law get this...I am not entitled to job seekers allowance as I have been unemployed in the last two years and I didn't claim, so my class 1 national insurance payments didn't get made. This was caused by me deciding not to claim off the state on a previous occasion, and the fact that I have been paying National Insurance contributions for the last 22 years doesn't matter as they only look at the last two years records.
So if you have only lived in the UK for 2 years and paid your contributions during those 2 years you can claim if you are them made unemployed, but I can't.
If that's just then I'm a purple spotted llama.
