Slave centres show lack of 'customer care'

Placard and accompanying text by Swheatie of the KUWG

"Given indefinite sanction" = Given fuck all service

Any obscenity relating to the above placard design is really in the lack of 'customer care' in the way that economically vulnerable people are treated at the so-called 'North Kensington Jocentre Plus', and in the orders they are given from 'on high'.

Being forced into daily signings on with fluctuating attendance for allegedly spending too long on JobSeekers Allowance is one thing when there are not enough waged jobs around. But bullying claimants into handing over their Universal Jobmatch password is an illegal act, so why do they sanction a person for defying that order?

It is just pure, malevolent punishment.

Benefits sanctioned? Take mass action!

Meeting structure

Helping you feel at home: We meet weekly in the Small Hall at KingsgateCC and start gathering from 3pm, attempting to start the meetings at about 3:15pm and definitely before 3:30pm.

Bring and share refreshments are included. We are not like the 'No eating or drinking on the premises' jobcentre.

The formal meetings start with firstname and what benefit we are on or a one-liner about what brings us to KUWG. (Pensioners and other allies welcome.)

We then ask for casework from those present, arrange who will help with what case, and go onto discussing campaigning leafleting and such outreach activities. We also arrange who will do the chairing or facilitating and note-taking for the following week. Rotating these roles helps minimise the risk of being dominated by one person and helps us build our skills as we share the workload.

Meetings actually finish at about 5:20pm to allow for putting tables and chairs back and leaving the kitchen facilities ready for the next group.
