why won't they pay me job seekers allowence?

i came back from spain last year after being there 2 yrs i was not entitled to allowance when i came back which i didn't mind as the advisor said i hadn't paid anything in for 2 yrs so you cannot claim.since then ive had a job & paid back into the system for 10 months & have just been made redundant. i have tried to claim again but have been told that i can't & i have not been in the country long enough ! how do they expect me to live i pay rent ,i need food what am i going to do if i cant get a job ? can i take them to the court of human rights ?
