While those who have paid taxes who sign on every week are threatened with sanctions constantly if they have not found a job they will have their benefits stopped causing severe anxiety to these people who have paid their bit.

There is still prejudice and stigmatisation towards those with mental health illness in this country, unless you have suffered real depression and anxiety you cannot fully understand how debilitating it is. Support and treatment is almost non existent, so sufferers are left to cope on their own, often with dire or even fatal consequences. It is not an easy illness to treat and there is no fully successful treatment, it will always have a lifelong adverse effect to some extent, and may require repeat treatment or therapy. Much better treatment and access to treatment is required if the government wants a healthier, more resilient workforce.

​@@margaretmichie2007exactly I found full time job but because of my chronic illnesses which hospitalised me twice in one year needing surgery then injuring my shoulder so I couldn't do job they told me to get lost & not come back I worked bloody hard when I was their working but even with good reasons which was out of my control & accounted for via medical records & doctors they didn't want to know

REALLY?.......HOW ABOUT WE STOP THE HUMAN TRAFFICKING...ENCOURAGED BY RISHI SUNEK AND PAID FOR BY THE TAX PAYERS.............JUST A THOUGHT!!!!!!!!!!!!!

There is about 1.2 million people in the UK in wheelchairs alone never mind all the others with mobility problems, people that just had surgery that will need months to recover, I myself was a passenger in a bad car accident in 1997, we hit a brick wall at 60mph and I ended up with 7 metal plates in my face under my eyes and around my chin and jaw, my nose was broke lips were split wide open I lost all my front teeth and most of the others were chipped and cracked, my lung was punctured, spleen ruptured, liver torn, my wrist was badly broken with metal plates in it now, my hip was broken femur was sticking out side of my left leg, my knee was broken shin and ankle too, had metal pins and plates all the way up and down my left leg and my foot was pushed through the floor of the vehicle so my left ankle was cut off, I still have my toes but no heel bone, the surgeons had to take a muscle from my back that left a 2ft long scar and wrap that around my ankle plus several skin grafts from my arms and legs over several years to finally patch it up. Now half the skin on the sole of my foot and all around my left ankle area is scar tissue, I cant walk far on it as its painful and splits and bleeds, my ankle wont bend very well only 35% of normal range of motion and my injured leg is 3 inches thinner than the other. I cant build it up as I cant stand on it for long and the thin scar tissue on the sole of my foot will never be able to take much, So just moving around the house is hard for me. I go back to podiatry every few weeks as the dead skin builds up so much it splits and bleeds on its own without it. I have had a ulcer on the scar tissue the last 2 months and its not looking any better, I have to see nurses every week and week compression dressing keep my leg elevated as it has reduced blood flow due to all the damage it has. And by look of it its either going to take months to heal or ill end up having to have another skin graft on it. And this is an injury from 1997, 26 years ago so its not really going to improve now I am mid 40s and going grey and turning in to a old man. I had to have permanent stitches put in my back in 2015 as the scar tissue ripped under the skin and my back filled up with blood where I had the muscle graft and now I cant raise my arm over my head or anywhere near it without causing pain, just folding clothes for a minute or so and it feels like I have been punched in the back and it aches for quite some time after. When I stand up it only takes a minute or so and the scar on my ankle that's a huge area 19 inches long and 10 inches wide starts to go red and purple, it aches and throbs as blood travels down the leg but struggles to get back up, and its the same when I am sat in a chair it just takes a bit longer to start to hurt when I am sat down 10-15 minutes at most is all I can sit for then I need to raise my leg which I do by sitting on the sofa with my leg up and I can pretty much feel the blood flowing back up my leg as soon as I raise it. So what work am I fit to do from home? I have passed the fit for work assessment every 3 years since it started 10-15 years ago, I have letter from the surgeon that says I am not fit do do anything that involves being on my feet or even just walking about and I still might have to get my leg amputated below the knee, the first year or two after that would be really hard even to just get around the house. and there is no way I can sit in a chair 6-8 hours a day either typing or using a computer and phone as I cant sit in a chair long without having a sore back and my leg throbbing and wanting to explode until I elevate it again. I live on my own and am pretty much housebound, just getting up to make something to eat and sitting down to eat it causes me pain so I feel I am not fit to do any work from home and ill fight them all the way with it. I have got so many scars from over 400 stitches all over my body from that accident and that's just the stitches on the outside u can count, my body is a mess and I deserve to be comfy and pain free, not having to sit at a computer or phone at home 6-8 hours a day in a position that would cause me pain all the time. I mean if they are going to make people in wheelchairs work from home doing something like data entry sitting typing in numbers or something repettetive and boring all day long that's not really going to do much to improve their mental health or give them a skill to use in life is it, How sick disabled or injured to you actually have to be to get sickness benefits because by look of it you have to be pretty much dead.

Doc my benefits go for it, add to hell I'm going through waiting for the NHS to fix me. Never thought I'd be off sick this long...but i never thought I'd live through a pandemic in which medical treatment not deemed urgent was cancelled, and now we have the strikes. Might aswell just go down the route Canada has taken, just pop us off by state assisted suicide.

The work capeability assessment is run by people with only 6 weeks training and they specifically target people to refuse benefits, these people then go on to a court of appeal/tribunal to have the decision overturned by the court the DWP hardly ever attend because they are so cock sure that they will win their case against them but they rarely ever do, how much is this court/tribunal process costing the tax payer for decisions that are made wrongly and aggressively in the fist place by a company hired by the goverment to cut the amount of people on benefits? These companies hired by the govermentn are failed comnpanies in the USA now active here in the UK.

just another diversionary tactic, while everyone is looking over here your missing what's going on over there.

How many times have we heard this nonsense and every year the benefits bill spirals out of control. Until work pays at the bottom end of the scale people will use the benefits system to circumvent the need to get a job.

The process the most vulnerable have to go through to get personal independent payments is fact enough they are poorly and any jumped up TV presenter couldn't deny their claims.

Nothing is being said about the benefits bill that pays benefits to working people who cannot earn enough to live on. The whole bill is made up of many claimants like pensions, pension credit UC for working families. But you clump the 26 billion price tag belonging to those claiming sickness benefit. If you want to do a report do a fair and proper one.

The government should be ashamed of themselves hitting out at the sick , they need to think again,

There's a fine line between sick and lazy.

Nobody appears to be attacking the rich people who are screwing the system by avoiding and evading tax, mps claiming expenses on second homes etc.

there are 1000s in my town from europe who have never worked a day since they arrived { started arriving 25 years ago } in the country and have no intentions of ever working .not a racist comment or anything that STARTS ENDS WITH ISIM just a fact

No-ones home is a place of work unless it's a lifestyle choice. The gov are our servant, not ppl theirs.

Blaming the sick and disabled whilst corporations dodge billions in UK tax. Righty oh. Just move to universal basic income. Everyone gets it. No one can complain and it boosts productivity. People who are able to work won’t have to worry their benefits will end.

Something thats never mentioned is people like myself worked 25 or more years on building sites paying 25% and high ni to government then become disabled due to that work ..we never had forklifts doing all the work we carried everything on our back no silos with ready mixed cement ..sent to remove asbestos with hardly any safety gear now we cant work our bodys are broken in constant pain ect..

There is a large percentage of people using Universal Credit to bolster their wages. Instead of attacking the disabled perhaps the government should scrutinise the people who pay poor wages

How can the government when all the businesses are closing we live in a town where most of the shops have closed what jobs are there about with more companies going under so more unemployed and the country should support its vulnerable people

I was a nurse I want to work from home . But I was put under safe guarding as tried to take life .😭😭

No offense to Adam but he clearly has never been on a council estate if he thinks it's less than 1% of people on benefits blagging it, I know dozens blagging Fibromyalgia and depression, they know the dole better than the people that work there, a guy I know tells people exactly what to say and do in the interviews 😂 the system is a joke, entire sections of my town are allocated to heavily overweight women with more kids than sense, stick thin boyfriend addicted to cannabis pulling 2 grand a month for getting out of bed at 12 😂😂😂

@@GeekyC that's sounds rough mate, a guy I know who also suffers from ADHD I work with was actually prescribed cannabis from the NHS believe it or not, he manages to work well enough now, regarding working from home I can't imagine how it would be implemented as far as I've seen it only tends to be customer services, HR roles and management that gain working from home. Most regular people dream of working from home so can't imagine there are enough roles to cater for a million long term sick, a lot of companies are downscaling the work from home for numerous reasons, it's far too complicated and each case needs examining on a case by case basis to weed the lazy from the incapable.

Stay well away from all religions and their many prayers.

I think it’s fine to review and trial home working, but only if it helps rather than penalises! I’ve been very unwell and looking to try and get some part time hours working from home and can’t find the remote jobs. Maybe it’s an age issue as well as I’m nearly 60!!! I can understand that a company might choose a vibrant 40 yr old without a 2 yr break in their CV above a 60 yr old with a 2 yr sickness! X

There are definitely a lot of people who can work that don't, and those people need to be working. I too don't mind paying taxes to help genuine people that can't work, I might need that help one day. But if the government wants to save cash, then there are 101 ways to do it. But it would require a little work, and this us easier and has a good sound bite .

Can you imagine if they said, lets stop paying for women to be single mothers? Those are people who utilise most of the welfare through housing support and income support. But then no one would ever vote for them. We've got this problem now of wanting to support everyone through welfare programs but then wonder why poor people have 40% of their income taxed to pay for it. So we basically punish poor people, to support other poor people, who didnt need the support in the first place.

But its okay too spend 6 million a day for people who have come in on boats 🚢

It’s ok to say there are 1m job vacancies and disabled people to fill them but what kind of jobs are they? Are the expectations physical? Are they able to do the job? Are they qualified? Will they be able to get there? It’s not black and white.

All well and good saying work from home, doing what ? cold calling telly sales also working from home would mean your home is now registered as your place of work this can effect council Tax, House insurance and other charges related to housing. I have been on long term sick due to a spinal issue that leaves me in constant pain numbness in my arms and legs., I was offered re-training but as I had 13 City & Guilds to my name I was then classified as over qualified, The only thing offered was a fork lift truck drivers course totally inpractable

The most important thing is. The government of the media don’t differentiate between people who have worked all their lives and people who have never worked . But everyone is labeled a scrounger. Me personally I hate the DWP and its incompetence and corruption

0.00001% that's just one person in the whole of UK. That's an amazing coincidence cause she's my next door neighbour. Walks like rambler striding the hills normally but on assessment day out comes the crutches, the sad expression and the practised hobble.then that's her for another year. Why is it, if modern medicine is getting better there are more disabled people.

What are all these jobs working from home? All the jobs I've done involved lots of physical manual work that couldn't be done from home, I'm very interested to know, what is known as work these days. Please anyone

I suffer from anxiety which is debilitating a even talking on the phone to a stranger is stressful. I think there is too many know alls which know f all about how difficult it can be and the government is just making the stigma worse. I do claim benefits and I do feel a bit gaslight by the government and some people.

Lots of people would like to work but company's won't do on job training, they want them with lots of qualifications. Which to be honest doesn't mean they are good workers. Lots of people learn much better actually doing the job by learning it from someone already experienced and also pass on their years of knowledge. They could be on a reduced wage for say 3 months while training with the benefits topping them up during that period.

You can get a very favourable loan which you don't have to pay back until you earn near £30k. I got one and did my qualifications in my own time. I have three young children. There are few excuses not to be able to get qualifications.

Give them all food vouchers, If you are so disabled you should not be able to physically go on holidays or drive So food vouchers should be sufficient. Next door to me they have a 60k MG paid by the tax payer while I can only afford a 15 year old car and have worked full time every day of my life

They talk as if all the jobs available are suitable for everyone. Many jobs are specialist jobs, many are labour intensive, many need certain skills, many are zero hour contracts, many are temporary fix term contracts, those that are left are few. Care work appears to be one of the largest crying out for staff but you can't have disabled or people with mental health issues in those positions. So it is disingenuous to say there are millions of jobs available as if all unemployed are suitable for those jobs and just lazy. Big tax fraud and the wasting of billions by the government on dodgy deals is much worse than some people exploiting benefits.

There won't be a need for carers if they are sending the Sick and Disabled into work Carers will be made unemployed

The problems stem from people claiming pip on mental illness grounds such as depression. This was not why the disability benefit was set up by Thatcher under the Heath government in the 70s. Anyone can claim mental health issues. It's difficult to contradict them. People with genuine mental health should be diagnosed by a specialist doctor. Then get help with benefits. All claimants should be examined properly by a team of doctors not untrained assessors. It's now pot luck. Or who can lie the best.

On a mountain, by a fountain, flowers blooming everywhere take the time to feel the sun shine in a world where leaders don't care..

If they force disabled people into situations they are not capable of they will only get the sack from any employer due to their physical and mental disabilities and inability to do the tasks required or the employers may not even offer them work... very strange situation, going for the vulnerable when the Tories squandered millions during covid and all the immigrant's getting everything for FREE

America Just send another 520,000,000 to Ukraine. so they can throw it down their money pit. Also, Great Britain has sent 1.3 billion. for Ukraine to throw down their money pit. But they refused to tackle the Sickness benefit cuts. the money they could save. from Ukraine. would more than cover the difference.

Totally agree with Adam Gabsi. The country is not ready to promote disabled people back to work one way or the other. I experience this myself as a disabled person. I have many disabilities that stops me from travelling far, like Adam in the video. This means I can only work locally (very part time) or from home (Part time too, but more hours). But after a year of applying for jobs (over 200 applications - this in mostly in 2023 - 2 work coaches, workshops in how to write CVS and letters, various interviews) I have not been able to get a job whatso-ever. Most companies are not ready to take on disabled people, even if they claim they do (I have been discriminated 3 times already in the past year). And working from home is not easy to come by UNLESS you are willing to travel to far-off places like London or Edinburgh (Edinburgh is 3.5 by train for me) to have a weekly or monthly meeting. This is not going to work for anyone with mobility issues, unless they actual live in the city. So, there you have it. The other thing is the level of benefits. Now, I don't expect the government to pay Disability Benefits up to a level of a working person, but to let people basically rot away in tiny bedsits and sent them to foodbank because of rising prices all around, is not exactly wonderful either. Of course, I want to work to earn extra, but it is not going to happen if people look down their noses when I apply for jobs and there is very little provision for disabled people to participate.

There is another thing loads of my son's mates wanted jobs and every job they applied for they got told to go and apply through an agency and they would have work 1 day none the next 2 days how are they going to get a meaningful wage. Out of 5 days 2 days work but he had told the nab he had a job but not enough to pay his transport to work.

The ONLY measure of how well welfare is working is by how many people can leave it.

Why don't you send all those scrounging asylum seeker immigrants etc that have claimed benefits as soon as they've landed on our shores. Oh you can't do that because they're already working on the sly.

MAKE THE YOUNG AND FIT IMMIGRANTS GO TO DAM WORK . !!

The work capability assesment absolutely needs reforming. Perhaps a capacity for work assesment.

And he has 7 properties in Southampton. I wonder if we should delve into his finances that maybe arent being taxed. Iseriously hope that man is kicked out. Preying on the disabled people who simply cant work Absolutely evil greedy cruel man. Hes going nowhere. Everyone will hate him including me

I would not know how to work from home. I am not an office person. I can barely sort out my own things paperwork etc. Im on sick have chrones and ulcerative colitis. Receiving imuno suppressant.

The Conservatives punching down as usual.

The problem is the investment just hasn't been there. There is a major difference between sanctions and helping someone find a suitable job. The job market is vast and trying to narrow down jobs someone can do is difficult not just from their needs and availability but also if they lack experience and qualifications. If you're going down this path staff needs to be better trained in helping disabled people find the right job and the ways of getting that job. Personally I would advise against sanctions but help those who are disabled who want to try and work. 1 on 1 support and I would recommend using the education system giving access to free meaningful courses. There also needs to be stricter punishment towards employers. As someone who has to wear medical boots I was expected by a employer to paint my boots because they had a red stripe down them.
