Sam Greenhill. and Daniel Martin. Created:. 19:52 EST, 20 February 2012. Jobless people attending courses run by David Cameron's 'back to work' tsar Emma Harrison were ordered to sign blank timesheets, it was alleged yesterday. Others complained of being forced to waste hours sitting doing nothing instead of being allowed to look for gainful employment. A damning dossier of allegations about Mrs Harrison's employment agency A4e has been handed to the Comptroller and Auditor General by former minister Fiona Mactaggart. She is the Labour MP for Slough, Berkshire, where last week A4e's offices were visited by police as part of a fraud probe. The Prime Minister is facing demands to suspend lucrative Whitehall contracts which A4e won to help the long-term unemployed find jobs. 'Posh commune': A4e boss Mrs Harrison's £5million pile has 16 bedrooms, 100 acres of land, a pool, spa, a bar, a nightclub and a long dining table for banquets. Millionairess Mrs Harrison, 48 - made. families tsar by Mr Cameron after she boasted she could help problem. families find work - triggered outrage when she paid herself. £8.6million of mainly taxpayers' cash. Ministers. have sought urgent reassurance there is no 'systematic fraud' of the. public purse, after Thames Valley Police were called in by the. Department of Work and Pensions. Ms. Mactaggart's dossier contains accusations from constituents who were. made to attend an A4e 'back to work' course as a condition of receiving. state benefits. One claimed: 'Every Friday, the "clients" have to sign a blank timesheet and the times are filled in later. 'Members of my group were told to fill in a blank piece of paper outlining any "modules"...and to sign a blank "review". 'I would guess this was to fraudulently claim that all "criteria" as laid down by the government was adhered to.' Another. complainant, a construction worker, said he had spent 13 weeks on an. A4e course supposedly to renew a forklift operator's licence yet had. 'received no training at all', despite repeatedly asking for some. Attendance. on a back-to-work course is mandatory for the long-term unemployed if. they want to keep being paid benefits, and companies such as A4e charge. taxpayers millions of pounds to run them. But a third person described a 'chaotic, unorganised' A4e course in which 'we would mostly be shunted in and out of rooms, staring at walls, long silences with none of the staff telling the group what was happening'. She told the MP her group was forced to 'learn' menial tasks such as how to write a letter on a computer. She said: 'I did not learn anything that I did not know already, and it is ridiculous and worrying that people like myself should be forced into this position where I have a proven work history.' Last night Ms Mactaggart, a former Home Office minister and a member of the influential Public Accounts Committee, said: 'I think there is a series of what appears to me on the face of it to be fraudulent actions - expecting people to sign blank time sheets and so on. Prime Minister David Cameron is facing calls to sack his 'back to work' tsar after a fraud probe was launched. 'It is in itself wrong to get vulnerable unemployed people to sign blank time sheets, because this company is in the position where it has the power to put people in breach of their Jobseekers' Allowance conditions. 'In my view, that makes A4e not fit to receive a government contract. The government should absolutely consider suspending the contracts. 'The concerns that my constituents have raised are sufficient for me to believe that they are not a proper company to get taxpayers' money and to be dealing with vulnerable people.' The MP forwarded the complaints to Sir Amyas Morse, the Comptroller and Auditor General - the head of the National Audit Office which scrutinises the accounts of government departments and agencies. She demanded an investigation, telling him the cases seemed to be examples of 'A4e taking money from the Government without actually delivering anything worthwhile'. Other MPs have attacked Mrs Harrison's vast dividend, which she paid herself after A4e recorded a £234million turnover. A4e - which used to be called Action For Employment - makes all its UK income from state contracts. Mrs Harrison, worth an estimated £70million, lives in a £7million country mansion in Derbyshire with her husband Jim, their four children, and a group of 11 close friends and their six children in a 'posh commune'. Labour's Margaret Hodge, who is chairman of the Public Accounts Committee, has led calls for Mrs Harrison's company to have its state contracts suspended. Margaret Hodge, the chairwoman of the Public Accounts Committee, yesterday tabled a parliamentary question asking whether the Government would suspend the company's contracts pending inquiries. A Thames Valley Police spokesman said: 'Officers visited the offices of A4e in Slough as part of an allegation of fraud, which was referred to the Force by the Department for Work and Pensions. The investigation is ongoing and at an early stage, therefore we are currently unable to comment any further.' A4e said the police had only come in 'for a meeting' and had not taken away any documents. It said the fraud probe concerned an isolated incident two years ago relating to four employees who had since left the company, and that A4e had discovered the alleged fraud itself and reported it to the Department for Work and Pensions within 48 hours. Last night an A4e spokesman insisted the concerns raised by Ms Mactaggart had been resolved, saying: 'Under the new Work Programme, customers are no longer required to fill out timesheets. 'All our staff have clear guidelines on how to complete claims made under Work Programme and these claims are independently verified by the employer and by JobCentre Plus. 'A4e has a zero tolerance policy towards any form of behaviour that might lead to allegations of fraud. 'The concerns raised by Fiona Mactaggart's constituents are not linked to the current Thames Valley Police investigation.' Here is a summary of the highlights for this article:

question:You are a helpful assistant, who always provide explanation. Think like you are answering to a five year old. The group winners, Belgium, qualified directly for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. The group runners-up, Greece, advanced to the play-offs as one of the best 8 runners-up, where they lost to Croatia and thus failed to qualify for the first time since 2010. Is it true that did greece qualify for the world cup 2018?
answer:No, it is not true that Greece qualified for the 2018 FIFA World Cup. They were the group runners-up and went to the play-offs, but they lost to Croatia. So, they did not make it to the World Cup in 2018.
question:You are a helpful assistant, who always provide explanation. Think like you are answering to a five year old. Since I first saw this in the theater it has been my favorite. Since then I've seen it countless times and I never get tired of it. The setting has a lot to do with it (the Colorado I know would be jealous), but the storyline is original and I liked how it used small town mountain folk as the heroes. There has not been a movie I can compare this too. John Lithgow plays a smart villain, but I love how he is completely out of his element--he has to follow Tucker around and that's what keeps it interesting. This is an action movie at it's BEST. I don't think I'll see another that is so entertaining. You don't need 50,000 rounds fired to qualify as an action movie. It just has to keep you captivated, not shell-shocked. Would you say this review is positive or negative?
answer:This review is positive because the person really enjoyed the movie and thinks it's their favorite. They mention that the setting, storyline, and characters are all great, and that it's an action movie at its best. They also say it's entertaining and keeps them captivated.
