Quick history lesson for you,during the 30's there was mass unemployment and thousands of men were out of work,hundreds would wait outside the factory gates every morning in the hope of getting one of the five or six jobs that may be going,men walked the streets with placards around their necks begging for work,and this was well before the bedroom tax,

What? The Mirror embellishing on the truth for political gain?

That's his second time at it, if you read the original story it says he went and did whatever the job was for £10.50

IF of course all this is totally accurate at face value, then I just feel sorry for the guy as he's clearly trying and making the effort unlike so many.

Agree with Rock, if you actually read the links you will see it is the second time, he actually did the 40 hours work he promised for the original 10.50 he recieved, the man is genuine and trying to earn a living, he is obviously no layabout.
