Boyfriend trying to support me and baby but can't

Why can't my boyfriend find a job....
he's been trying really hard for so long and nothing is working..
his CV is good and hes had experience in things like being a waiter and working in a shop but still nothing has come up for him no matter hw many restaurants or shops he contacts!!
i feel so bad that i know hes trying so hard and wanting to be able to support me and the baby
what can i do to help though? 
what can he do more to get a job?
anybody else struggling with this sort of thing right now?

Would it be possible for you to get a job?

do you work?

Putting it bluntly, in the UK it is damn hard to get a job, mainly because of all the immigrants coming over, and all the 'equality' stuff, employers have to give priority to immigrants, disabled people, older people, women, and then lastly men. Plus immigrants will work for less. All I can suggest if your bf keeps trying. Whereabouts in UK do you live?

i work already but only part time and i HATE it there 
i have 4 weeks holiday to take but they mucked that all up and then i plan to start maternity leave asap!

i live in the north east of england....
i understand what your saying but where i live my town is mostly white people and my boyfriend is filipino so surely employers would rather employ a filipino man rather than an english man to keep there 'equality numbers' right?

ohhh ok. well i dont really know what kind of work sources the uk has, but ummm has he tried a temp agency, they are able to locate temporary positions, and sometimes even where you temp they hire you full time!

Maybe you could hold off on maternity leave until he gets a job?

maybe he'll have to start looking out of town?
Do you or he know of anyone thats friends with the boss or is a boss?

Maybe you should try to stick it out a little longer (just for the sake of your family)
I really believe that you should try to work until you phyisically can't for some reason.

i know and i agree but even though i can physically carry on working i dont think i can mentally....
it's stressing me and bringing me down all the time so much so that i aint myself
