STRIPPERS ON UNIVERSAL CREDIT - Universal Credit claimants have been told they can work as strippers after a blunder on the Department for Work and Pensions website.
In a post, which has now been removed, the government suggested the kind of "work you could do" would be "dances in adult entertainment establishments."
It also suggested including "striptease artists" in "words to use in your online search".
And candidates would need "no formal academic entry requirements" - because "training is received typically on-the-job".
"Typical pay and hours" would be "42 hours a week for around £350.00".
A Department for Work and Pensions spokesperson said: "This is inappropriate and we will immediately review this to determine why it is mistakenly listed.
