As part of Boycott Workfare's week of action Nottingham Against Workfare call out for a week long internet blockade against workfare users Framework.

Framework, have recently admitted that they are using labour from DWP Mandatory Work Schemes to supplement its voluntary apprenticeship programmes. Whilst the head honchos at Framework like Oxbridge educated chief executive Andrew Redfearn continue to act as if they shouldn't be embarrassed at causing suffering to the working classes, staff who are further down the totem pole continue to show a combination of disgust and irritation at their employers actions.

So, from the 6th to the 14th of July visit the Facebook https://www.facebook.com/frameworkcharity  and Twitter https://twitter.com/Framework_HA  pages that glorify the work Framework do, and turn them into a wall of tears letting them know that they need to get themselves out of the exploiting labour business.

C.E.O of Framework is also standing for election as VCS of One Nottingham general@onenottingham.org.uk  who claim to be the strategic Partnership for the City, bringing together public, private, voluntary and community sector organisations to champion our long term vision for Nottingham and tackle disadvantage. Maybe they should be comprehensibly informed that Andrew's strategic vision includes taking advantage of social disadvantages.

When the Work Programme launched two years ago, the government wanted everyone finishing it to be sent to do six months of forced unpaid work. But all mention of this punitive scheme has now disappeared: a powerful testament to the strength of your actions.

People are pushing back the spread of workfare: One provider has complainedthat it has 100 fewer placements each week in its area alone. In recent weeks, Argos and Homebase claim to have pulled out of workfare, Wetherspoons has followed them and Debenhams are wobbling. The government has been ordered to reveal the list of workfare exploiters but keeps appealing: it is terrified that the public response will spell the end for workfare.
