Usual trolls have moved on to "WHY DON'T THE UNEMPLOYED DO X JOB?"
An economically illiterate notion. We have around 1m vacancies and about 1.6m unemployed. A supply pool only 40% larger than the demand will never match skills and geography so MAGICALLY as to suffice. 1/4 ~AA

It's also a rotten notion, because it robs anyone currently looking for a job of any agency. It implies an architect in Liverpool, looking for a job in her field, should drop her family, leave her home, abandon her chosen specialty, and go to Norfolk to pick potatoes. 2/4 ~AA
This is not only inhuman and unfair - the reason we all pay National Insurance is precisely that: as insurance. Poor gov't planning and an obsession with exclusing foreigners do not somehow unilaterally change that social contract. 3/4 ~AA
It's also a longterm own goal. It fosters low productivity and a stagnating GDP. It takes someone who has invested in acquiring a skill and puts them in a job where they don't use it, lowering their income and shrinking the economy.
