Incapacity tests reject 37% of claimants

I think it should be dependent on what job it is you do/want - obviously some jobs are better suited for certain people - someone with a history of chronic back problems should not be working in a hand car wash. It's the idiots that try to con the system that fail it for all, as usual.

Sorry, that's all outsourced to china.

The money grabbing cheats have done a number and they know it. And those who need real help and not pulling a fast one will suffer the broom.

To be honest the whole country is heading for the toilet U-bend.

It's not what you have, me old fruit, it's where you have it. The big smoke seems to have an easy eye on claimants but around here if you are still able to put one foot in front of the other then there's nothing wrong with you, even if doing so causes you a lot of pain and you can barely walk twenty-five meters before your hip gives way.

Wasn't there a problem in that the agency doing the testing had to fail a certain number of people.
Didn't they get some bad press for declaring terminally ill people fit for work and then having them die before they had recieved the letter telling them they were fit.
Come to think of it as something over 40% are overturned is this another A4e case where one of call me daves buddies is scamming the tax payer and commiting fraud in the name of "saving money" for the government.

Eventually all the population will be declared healthy, able and happy by presidential decree and then we can still enjoy a welfare state with zero cost!
