I don't seem to remember them telling me I couldn't look for part time work when I was on JSA.

I don't remember reading it in the rules,
but one time I printed off a couple of part-time job placements from the machine, and when I took them to my advisor he advised me that "you do realise we expect you to look for full time work," which surprised me then as much as it surprises you now.

You can do part-time work (under 16 hours a week, paid or voluntary) whilst on JSA,
as long as you declare any earnings when you sign on, so it can be deducted from your JSA. However, you still have to be seeking full-time work to continue to be eligible for JSA.
This is specific to JSA -- there are other benefits available to people working over 16 hours a week, or who are unable to work full-time.
