UK’s Supreme Court rules ‘workfare’ legally flawed

In a Financial Times article, Carla Davidson comments upon a Supreme Court ruling that the Government's controversial back to work schemes, which require jobseekers to work for free or risk losing their benefits, were legally flawed.

Carla goes on to discuss how the ruling is embarrassing for the Government as critics of unpaid work schemes now have another opportunity to express their dissatisfaction and emphasise the importance of paying workers fairly.
