The Labour Government

There are plenty of people on sickness benefit who no doubt could do a job but choose not to. We all know that Kaz.

It's distinguishing between those that are taking the system and taxpayer for a ride and those that are genuinely ill that has always been the problem.

The percentage of people ill shouldn't be going up but actually falling as our society becomes healthier.

The fallout from covid is huge , they could put more money into long covid centres , people want to get well and your local gp does not know how to help you

I dont accept there are millions on sickness benefits who are making it up and the assessments are long and thorough and not easy to get , just to be given a handout that barely cover food and heating and carers

Not having a go at you but the mail and other papers have got it into peoples heads that everyone is a scrounger , unless you have ever been involved in the system and know how difficult it is then i politely reject the figures they pump out

Last time i looked at gov figures fraud is 0.7% including mistakes by the dwp itself . I also dont accept we are all getting healthier 1 in 2 will get cancer in their lives and we are an aging population that have all sorts wrong

Just caught the news saying streeting is sending crack teams to trusts that have the highest number of people on sickness benefits locally , he should be sending them to trusts with the longest waiting lists and getting more drs, nurses and gp's and sorting out the care system, until he does that everything will stay log jammed and it will just be all talk

It takes longer than 5 years to seriously increase the number of doctors, ie not this parliament, mates. Nurses is as much to do with leavers as recruitment. How about pay them more? To the revolution!

I hope they do some of it , it needs everything involved in the nhs and care sector to be brought together , i think he has an obsession with people on benefits and not working on the big problems that will unplug the system at both ends , can only hope he doesnt have tunnel vision

Paying them more is the best option , it might stop more deserting the sinking ship for now , he also needs to give them free parking , it is a scandal they have to pay hundreds of pounds a year to go to work . Restart the bursary for trainee nurses and go back to training on the wards , you dont need a degree to be a nurse , i learnt on the job , three months in school to learn human biology , how to do drips and basic nursing care then turfed out onto a three month placememt for example casualty, then a couple of weeks in school to take exams on what we did so far then out again to a different area of the hospital , rinse and repeat for three years, doesnt take as long train and gives you extra bodies on the wards and no huge debt
