In today's episode, we will be discussing Jobcentre Plus, the punitive approach that we have been seeing when it comes to supporting people back to work, and what this says about the UK's welfare policy.

In Catch22's manifesto, we are calling for the government to revolutionise Jobcentre Plus so that, alongside other employment related services, they become a place where people are supported into careers rather than placed into ‘any job.’

Joining Stella to discuss the issues around Jobcentre Plus and welfare policy is Tom O'Grady, Associate Professor of Politics at University College London.
