FURTHER to my letter suggesting unemployed people be given useful work to do by the Government and be paid a proper wage for that work, I note the annual crop of invasive plants are appearing.
The removal of the dangerously invasive Himalayan balsam could be a valuable contribution by unemployed people and also the removal of such things as ragwort and Japanese knotweed.
Such a change from benefits to valuable work is such a simple change as to elude our dim-witted politicians, who are the only ones with the power to effect such change and some of the few who can vote themselves huge unjustified salary and allied benefits increases.
