This particular post grad studied biology, not nail care. She, and others, including people a lot older, thought that perhaps the government was going too far was maybe even breaking the law. They have been proved right but never doubt the governments ability to ignore that ruling and go to the supreme court.
There are a lot of people on here who spout righteous nonsense and, if put in a similar position, would scream blue murder.
Agreed Steve! 
I started on £5. 10s a week, and worked up to 16 hours a day. It was my learning curve and training in retail management, that I willing did. But to work for nothing for any company is completely out of order and who would do that willingly?!!
A good call by the judges for once!
My girlfriend, for one, and everyone else who volunteers for any charity? I know you said 'company' but (to me) charities are just companies that aim to make no profit..
Almost every single charity shop you see, for example (with the exception of, I think, the British Heart Foundation), has two paid members of staff - a manager and assistant manager - and everyone else there is a volunteer.
Yes, I did. That was because in the article about this student she had to give up a voluntary job at a museum and go to Poundland because the authorities demanded she do so to justify her benefits.
I personally have, and still do, voluntary work, but that is my choice on my own terms. For the Government to force individuals to work for nothing for wealthy companies is wrong, very wrong!
PS Sorry aaron, just noted your post stating basically what I have! Great minds eh?!
