Disability benefits are for those that CANT work not for those that are unemployed or can't FIND work.
You seem to thinks it's there because there aren't the jobs.
Thanks Julie, you've proved my point.

We are talking about disability benefits, not unemployment.
Nowhere have I said genuine claimants don't exist nor have I said they are in the minority.
What I despise are those that claim it for a disability that doesn't stop them working, exaggerating or lying.
It is there for people who cannot work, not those that don't want to or can't find a job.

If the government is so concerned about false disability and jobless claims costing us money why give the job of assessment to a foreign company, rather than employing British people to do the job and thereby decreasing the unemployment figures?

I have a sick son, so please don't start to challenging me. He can't even afford to have a driving license.

I have been taken off ESA and put into the work related group for 18months. The lady who interviewed me was shocked that i was even there.
Her advice appeal immediately. I have no problem with those conning the system.I just wished that all the conmen in business, banking, politics and were pursued with equal vigor.
BTW i cant be made to take work or even a course under my presesnt circumstances, so its a waste of time and the few pounds they have saved will actually be spent and then some on pointless interviews.
I would love to get back to work, but all i really want is death im fed up with the last few years,ive had enough of smug im alright jacks looking down their noses at me. Many of which would not know a real days work like the public sector parasites doing this.
Also that money given to us goes back into the economy, supporting the poor sods on minimum wages and zero hours contracts the fill the pocket of corrupt business etc.

That is for the unemployment section and unemployment benefits.

Re: Yet another welcome policy from Corbyn's Labour Party
I know a guy 2 years younger than me that had a car accident when he was 19, drunk and returning from the pub.Injured his back and has claimed disability ever since.
He has a nice mobility car that he pootles around in and to keep fit he plays golf at least twice a week during the summer...if he gets time that is...summer is his busy time for earning extra cash gardening.
The testing/assessments are lacking, this is my beef with the system.
