(nr. 79 ) Veterans homeless ? I experienced difficulty posting on Expatica (gets disconnected), so from a printout of 'Post a reply' window I place the text here and shall give a link in the new topic on Expatica.
----------------------------------------------------------
Not sure, but have heard it's a similar situation in UK.
They did expand the definition of Homelessness.
Two (Big Brother's) considerations: men, who know how to fight and bear arms are dangerous, so it's best to lower them in a social sense.
The two aspects of poverty:
no income, but also the humiliation of being classified as homeless.
Social Engineering.

(nr. 78 ) NO APPEAL is necessary, I am told this morning re: Housing and Council Tax, because not only they resumed payments, but "the one week gap is filled already".
--------------------
I have just asked a man in the library, whom I saw a few times before, if he has lived/worked in the Hague, and he said 'no'. It's just one of those things, smb. looking like smb. else. I mean a man I saw almost regularly on bus 4 going to Mariahoeve from the CS a few years ago, whose demeanor and the umbrella he was carrying attracted my attention. Well, it was somebody else.
----------------------------
THE TEXT OF MY APPEAL (against the decision by E. Lamont made 10 October, 2007 ) which I posted to PO Box 108 ( Fareham LM DMA Sector Office).
1. I was "actively seeking employment" in 13-19 Sept. 07 period.
I can make my case.
2. No official statement of reasons was made by S.Simpson.
3. I have filled "Part Two" questionnaire (on the spot), which
does not apply to me.
4. I have not seen Part One.

(nr. 77 ) My APPEAL posted this morning 1st class, with a cert. posting - which I get for everything now, as you can't trust those people. Absolutely not.
Yesterday I went back to the JCPlus to ask if the 3 vacancies "Sharon" had printed out was all she has chosen (it would be in comp.file). One 'med. admin' job she has read out to me was in QA hospital in Portsmouth. Olga's daughter might still be working there. [ Our meeting and tel. conversations with Olga, which did not go so well, was one remarkable instance of the details flying to Moscow and the Hague with the speed of light...] In short, Sharon said "We (?) decided it was too far" She did not tell me. Another potential occusation of 'not applying' ?
-----------
I'll make a separate appeal(s) re: Housing and Council Tax Benefit deductions that result(ed) from the JSA deduction (week 13-19 Sept. 2007) today/tomorrow.
--------------------
I'll post on Expatica later today. The latest and all posts can be seen by clicking on 'hantser' and then on 'all posts by hantser'.

(nr. 76 ) 7th of November ... I am going to ask them in the JCPLUS
at an interview in 15 min. time to make the wording of the new contract I signed more precise. 3 coloured cards offering 3 weeks trial (no salary) were given to me by Annie (who wouldn't give me her surname) who said I should be taking them to interviews and give them to employers.
To cont. today. -
The contract (I was told it's an 'agreement', not a contract) remains the same, but clarified by Sharon (she wouldn't give me her name because 'it's unusual') as follows: if I apply for the job, which I really like and know that I can do, I should enclose the card ( I asked for more and now have 12 ) into the envelope with the CV.
The card actually says:
"I could work for you for a trial period of up to 15 working days.
A Work Trial will give you the opportunity to get to know me and see what I can do.
- You will incur no wage costs or expenses during the trial
- There is no fuss and minimum paperwork
- You get the time to decide if I am right for the job
- There is no obligation if the trial doesn't work out.
In return, I will be able to show you what I can do before you make your decision.
Please contact: JCP Walpole Road, Gosport ... 023 9220 2000 (Kath Rooney) ".
---------------------------------------------------------
Annie (who did not give me her surname because 'I am the only Annie here') said she would not apologize, because she was 'just doing her work' (re: false allegations about my 'not applying' for 2 jobs.) She admitted 'it turned out' that I did apply and did go for an interview arranged by them. Another interesting detail: she absentmindedly placed my jobsearch report into a file on her desk instead of giving it back to me. In fact I thought there was smth. unusual about the way she handled papers, so I checked and discovered the missing a4.
---------------------------------------------------------
More about today's interview in a couple of days.

IT IS A NICE SUNNY DAY TODAY IN GOSPORT !

(nr. 74 ) Putin/elections - on a BBC World the other day a very brief and 'assertive' prediction of Putin's party winning - 'it is not a question of who, but by how much'. Did not say whose prediction it is. A new style of broadcasting?
--------------
Fanya Kaplan - a young woman terrorist ( of SR - socialist revolutionaries) who shot and wounded V.Lenin on 30 August 1918. In a book "LENIN" by Robert Service (2000) of over 500 pages her name is not mentioned. It even appears the assasin was not captured (!).
-----------------------
S-theater 'counted' : a hub of people (big or small) near a post box or paper recycling bins near Morrisons supermarket. Yesterday, as I saw predictable milling (cars and pedestrians) I stopped, holding my waste paper to count - 15 comings and goings in less than a minute. Emptiness before and after. I suppose they could not sustain that as they were taken unawares.
Must be a generational occupation locally - from young children to pensioners.
I surprise them from time to time, but they are very 'slow'. I also wrote about it before saying they are not as invisible as they think, including their handlers, majority of whom are so called
mad women.
-------------------
I shall quote Quentin Letts in the "Migrant Issues in Britain" on Expatica German Forum now.

( nr. 73 ) Lloyds TSB letter (from yesterday) - I went first to the Bank office on High Street yesterday and then to the Post Office. In both places there was a relactance to see the letter ( a thick A5 ) going astray as worthy of complaint or investigation ( Oh, don't worry! It's just a mistake, etc.).
In the post Office when my turn came, the woman attended to me BUT DID NOT TURN THE NUMBER of her DESK ON. To keep my enquiry off record ?
Another example of how they act-react-know too quickly.
On the day S. Simpson quite suddenly and quickly stopped my allowance 'pending investigation' I walked from the JobCentrePLUS to the Library round the corner. As I walked into the library, two women at the reception looked at me with such strong expression of empathy, sadness and understanding on their faces as could be expressed non-verbally. I think wrote about it in Kathaksung's topic on Expatica. Then, I suggested that they (not really 'knowing') were doing -2,-1,0,+1,+2 programmed 'acting'. What really emerges is that the S-theater has a much larger cast, perhaps ONE CAST albeit in different rooms or outside.
----------------
I can't afford going to London this weekend. As my next paperwork task is writing an Appeal about one week deduction of JSA (which entails corresponding deduction of housing subsidy and council tax) and writing (separately) a complaint about JSPlus personnel behaviour, the latest strange 'uncertainty' with the Recruitment Fair(/ tickets ) fits into 'strange' (jsp staff said just that) e-mails I started receiving from(via) TopLanguageJobs web agency website (Umer Sheikh et. al.) right after Steph Simpson expressed doubt about my job search report, i.e. whether I faked it (!) and promised to 'certainly check'.
