Well one week to go and the publicity has started.I was under the impression this show was about the unemployed,so far all i have heard is publicity promoting A4E.
I am then saddened to see how they are suggesting Larry Lamb was Lazy,and was not interested.I can tell you this is so far from the truth,Larry was getting to the heart of the real issues,he was listening,and also giving guidance.I also witnessed Emma Harrison apologising and accepting Larry was doing it a different way,but unearthing some real issues.I still have had no contact from A4E,they should be spending there time helping people like me,rather than using publicity to attack a celebrity,who really did try.
I never received any answers from A4E,Emma Harrison was meeting ministers in January,she said she would bring up my issues,have i heard a word,no,am i surprised,no.
So please A4E,can we really focus on what the programme is about,which is the unemployed,there issues,and not suggesting a celebrity is lazy.
hiya larry stayed in my house in hartlepool he was the most kindest man i ever met the production team were wonderful emily duncan martin, i cant belive the nastiness in the press he is getting. i am unemployed and thats why i took part in the show to highlight the problems we have , as we are not scroungers , i have always worked and since dec08 i was made redundant due to the credit crunch and it is been hard to find work, i told him how the job centre look down their nose at you and will not give information to you for help with travel or clothes for interviews you have to find that out yourself by asking others who have the knowledge by beeing on the dole aswell, for people who have never been unemployed its the hardest thing in the world you dont know where to turn, im not a scrounger i have all ways worked and paid into the system but £64.30 to live on is not enough, pensioners cry poverty and get winter fuel of £200 but they get £123 a week to live on and top up of pension credits, i wish i could aford to go to bingo lol. we cant get help for anything
ReplyDeleteMark, I picked up your tweets about Hayley Taylor contacting you offering help. Do you want to post something for the watchinga4e blog about it - a comment, or a post I can copy and paste?
