You do talk sh*te.I worked in the community for 15 years, used to help with the applications, this isn't the reality I saw, this is a vague media reality, most depend on the money, take it away and they have nothing, how are you actually going to get people in to work when the Tories defunded most schemes, send them to the bloody job centre with their CV?
This is punishing the poorest people in society and giving them a slap on the wrist, tsssssk look at you struggling you loser, no more money for you leech boy, we're taking it away so you can't spend it all on 20/20 and fags which we know you do because our prejudices told us , but look, here's some non existent sound bite schemes mentioned in parliament to help you along.
A government should be looking out for people, this is the opposite, it's demonising people and it's a load of ** bollocks,. it's bullying people and it can fuck off.
Tell you what Sunak, get your wife to pay some ** tax eh, dickhead.
If you seriously believe people who are sick would rather stay on benefits, as opposed to receiving help to get well, then you’re defeating your own argument.
Mental illness does not just impact work opportunities / the ability to work, it affects all parts of life. Families, friendships, hobbies, all impacted severely. It leaves people feeling like they don’t belong, without hope, looking at the world around them but unable to take part.
The absence of self-worth drives people to the edge and beyond, damaging others around them. It’s a viscous circle and whether it’s government or society, we should do all we can to bring lasting change.
Bottom line, if you think the PIP gives people hope and self-worth then you lack the ability to think laterally and understand deeper issues. @Lala talks sense and understands the issues. Caring is not chucking £100 at someone and ignoring their mental torment.
Political bias has no place in helping people to overcome illness. For those people who are unable to improve, despite help, the safety net is always there, irrespective of which party is in power.
I’d suggest the cowards way is to do the easiest thing. Making real and lasting change takes courage. Does any political party get it right, no they don’t, but you are so lost in hatred I don’t think you’ll ever get it.
