....is spot on about the welfare bill. I am so fucked off with 'my side' the left objecting to any form of welfare support. I see it every day, people signed off for mental health reasons, who rapaidly decline sitting at home all day. I heard a doctor the other day saying how hard it is to diagnose a mental health problem, well if you arent sure of the diagnosis how the fuck can you be sure time off work is the treatment?

Its shows how tribal and pathetic our politics has become, when suggesting leaving milllions of people on benefits is a bad thing, makes you a Tory.

Yes it needs doing sensitivly, and if done right the support sytems needed will mean its not an instant saving, but cutting welfare and getting people back to work (assuming a mix of AI and no growth hasnt killed off the jobs market) has to be the aim, politicians of the left should be able to say this without being shunned.
