My thoughts - there are loads of different mental health diagnoses and each one has their own unique symptoms, please do not fall into the trap of thinking mental health is only about depression it is not and your judgements do not help with people being open about their own mental health diagnoses. Going for a jog may help some but not others for many reasons that are not taken into consideration. Judging people with mental health will not get them back to work, if you are focusing your attention on this group of people you are only making your life worse by believing others are better off than yourselves, concentrate on your own life and improve your own circumstances rather than others that you think are riding the system. Also the government wants you to focus on this in order to take away the attention away from the amount of money they are giving to immigrants that have arrived in our country and have not contributed to our system and this seems to be working for the government, because I don’t hear you talking or judging about how much money is being given to immigrants who have not paid into our system.

Please stop persisting with the regular interviews/appointments with Jobcentre as we are working but have difficult limitations. The constant stress of being scrutinised for our conditions doesn't help. 2.) Make talking therapies more readily available. Ideally in short time. Talking therapies helped me get out of a very dark place and honestly saved my life. I would recommend it to anyone with mental health problems like depression & anxiety.

look at the poor and ignore the rich who get far more benefits in kind they don't want you to know about.

The government should make large corporations pay their workers proper wages so that the taxpayers don’t need to keep subsidising them! Most people on benefits have got a bl**dy job that’s not paying them enough money to live on!

Realistically there isn't enough workers actually contributing, when all the in work benefits are added up, a worker needs to be on a pretty high wage before putting money in the government purse through income tax.

Support workers for people with complex mental health issues appear to have no creative ideas, but again are pressured to tick boxes. When we begin seeing people as individuals with unique gifts and potential, the mental health of the population in this country may improve; but the ridiculous methods implemented in all of our services and institutions just shoves the problem down the road creating bigger problems in the long term.

"The DWP says that doctors should..." ? The DWP has no say on health issues, they are not medical professionals. Best of luck seeing a medical professional

Just sort out the immigration system!

Because employers don't actively discriminate against many of the people who want to work but can't get work. Get real.

People coming in who would earn 0.20p p/h see welfare as being rich 🤑

Yes, too many people on benefits and our so called 'government keeps letting them into the country at great expense to all UK taxpayers.

The real scroungers are those supermarket CEOs

You should talk about the actual problems that exist in politics and society!! This is just creating a new scapegoat instead of dealing with the real problems. More convenient.😎

If cutting benefits start with the sovereign grant .87 million for one family and about 40 million of the duchys

1 in 5 DWP workers claim benefits remember that

I can think of about 10 people who are claiming and work on black economy. Some have 2 cars, some get housing as a single parent but have partners who rent out their home. Drives me insane!

How about actually helping people get a job rather than suffer the humiliation of trying to apply for a job with say over 100 applicants, but the only one that gets the job is from the woke, diversity brigade because the company is forced to comply with the lefty snowflake shite agenda. So lets say when you go to do your usual 2 weekly signing or whatever it is now the job centre goes we have you this job, Its yours,. Turn up so and so at such and such then it is the persons own fault if they don't go. If they don't then cut their benefits but if the employer goes your not the right for the job then fine the Job centre gets you another one until you get a place thats for you. Also NO benefits for any illegal whatsoever.

I get sick and tired of people moaning about people being on benefit and not working . I am 51 years old and unable too work due to Severe Mental Health issues caused by being abused as a child . I suffer from Severe Anxiety , Depression , OCD , PTSD , Flashbacks , Night Terrors and Nightmares . I get £624 a month on Disability Benefit . I wish i was healthy enough to work and would swap with someone else in a heartbeat to take on my illness and then work fulltime again . Im fed up with being classed as Lazy , Not wanting to work etc etc .

Disability Benefit is quite a lot higher than Universal credit. Gone are the days when you could be on the dole, claiming for kids you don't have or a wife that left years ago, be fair nowadays people have to use food banks to survive and if you are late for an appointment they can stop your money for up to six months. You now have to prove that you are actively seeking work or you get sanctioned(new speak for money docked). Its rough out there if you don't have a job, and only a right wing Tory would claim otherwise. Thank god I'm not on that soul destroying treadmill any more, It ain't fun I can tell you.

AI will screw most jobs and it will only be a few years coming. We need a basic income system, we will all be better off.

Fully agree i get disability benefits due to my mental heatlh which relates to an assault but im a Universtiy student, Im actively trying to work for a better future so im not reliant on the welfare state, but its important to recognise that these "sick" people cant jump right into work, they need the support from medical professions, lets get them healthy in other words, i do this by going to CBT therepy (conative behaviour therapy) every week, others need to do the same, so they can sort their issues out and get back to work.

Of all the preposterous assumptions of humanity over humanity, nothing exceeds most of the criticisms made upon the habits of the poor by the well-housed, well-warmed and well-fed. Voters observe who is telling you what about the least able and consider would you fare better if by some unfortunate episode you too became sick and or disabled and there unfit to work. If one has paid national insurance one is entitled to receive from the state what the law stipulates in the minimum amount to live on.

What about the people who are well housed, warm and well fed yet are still falsely claiming hundreds of £ a month fraudulently? How long do we allow people to class themselves as sick? If you break your leg and can't work do we continue paying benefits once the leg is healed or send them back to work? If you beat cancer are you still entitled to sick benefits for life or do they stop when you are healthy enough to work? Do we keep paying people with mental health issues even when they refuse any treatment? Nobody is against benefits bud as majority of sane people are aware they are there for emergency use. Its the abuse of benefits that has become a problem. If you got stranded on a desert island with a dozen people and you had to graft to survive. You would soon get sick of supporting the lazy people who make excuses yet take your resources. Majority of people take modern life for granted because it's actually easy and our essentials to live are all provided.

@@kieranb7047 If you were at all aware of just what evidence one has to present and from whom to derive a successful sickness benefit claim, you would not be asking such questions. As I am aware it is posited by exactly the people I mentioned for the purposes of causing the unthinking to not only turn against their own as a distraction from what they wealthy are doing, but to get the unthinking to by way of a quirk of democracy authorise the removal of the safety net their national insurance payments exist to pay for. Of which is exactly how we lose our rights in this country ; the well housed, well warmed and well fed and not interested in you beyond what you can be conned into doing for them have to have the nations request that something is done about what the well housed, well warmed and well fed have informed you exists. But you ask how long do ' we allow ' people to be deemed sick, to tell you that is what the work capability assessment (WCA) exists for and I can tell you from experience it's not a push over as it's caused the suicide of many and very nearly my own when my military service derived mental ill health was at it's worse. But if it's education you seek, may I recommend the Disability News Service of which will furnish you with what is accurate as opposed to what the well housed, well warmed and well fed are telling you exists. But note the DWP despite being ordered to is refusing to release into the public domain a report on the number of welfare claimants lost to suicide as a result of Tory welfare policy to potentially describe another number to pile on top of the Covid dead - estimates suggest the number is in the hundred thousands.

Because employers are being subsidised by the tax payer to operate non viable business.

A veteran with no arms and his spine is damaged because bullets and he was told his fit for work some have terminal illness and told their fit for work but a certain group coming in this country get everything free

Let's start by getting MPs off benefits, no more subsidised restaurants & bars, no more 2nd jobs, no more free tickets to award ceremonies & sports events.

all they ever do is London newspapers so little village news

And most people on benefits are immigrants who have never paid into the system

Housing allowance are a huge part of benefits. In London a single mom with 2 kids of different gender gets 2000 housing allowance for working 20 hours a week on minimum wage. This way she will never move out of London and will never want to work longer hours or for higher salary, as this benefit will be cut and she'll have to pay for housing out of her own pocket. This creates this liw income trap - you get housing and UC as long as you don't earn much. I think the government should not cover more than 50% of the rent, the amount should be capped nationwide without any special exceptions for London, and this benefit should be for everyone, but for people who pay tax it should come as a tax free allowance.

Well I’m glad you’re not in government, given how hard it is to rent in London. You’d evict a single mum and kids to save the tax payer up to 15000 per year when temporary housing costs about 1000 per week- that’s 52,000 per year- or worse- if that means her kids going into care instead of being on the streets, that’s even more expensive (and wrecks their lives too)
