  • I’m sorry Rishi, work is really bad for my physical and mental health. You see, I’ve worked for Tory bosses for five years now. In that time I’ve aged about 20 years, I’ve gone grey, I’m sleep-deprived, constantly exhausted, and I have no free time. And after tax and commuting costs, in real terms I’m earning less than minimum wage for working about 50 hours a week. There are loads of middle-aged people out there who are stuck on entry-level graduate wages, and have been for years. Someone’s got all the money: and it isn’t us.

When I had a heart attack some 4 years ago I was signed off for 6 weeks following it - I didn't claim any benefits during this time, I was lucky enough that the company I worked for covered my wages during this period, but without those 6 weeks I would have never recovered and would more likely be dead right now. I think GPs must make the initial fit-for-work decision but any period beyond 6 months should be looked into by a committee. To take away the GPs power is wrong.

This is the problem a lot of people are abusing the system which means it is making it hard for genuine people. This is the fault of the government also as they took away all checks and balances during Covid for mental health related benefits as emergency measures and never reinstated them.

He overdosed on some OTC medication, and thankfully we were able to find him before it was too late; he was slumped over at my fathers gravestone (he’d died quickly from cancer 5years before). He spent almost 2 weeks in hospital, having had his stomach pumped etc but there was damage to some of his internal organs. I remember at the time the absolute shit show he had to go through to get a sick note; doctor wouldn’t sign him off, not believing his was depressed. After a lot of unnecessary fighting, he eventually got a letter. I hate this narrative that its too easy to get a sick note, and everyone is skiving off from work. I hate these Tories.

    • @@charlottecarter2748 The benefit system is designed to be stressful. As an example of how stressful the DWP is to deal with, out of 3500 people, who are on disability benefits, surveyed by Citizen Network Research, 61% have had suicidal thoughts due to dealing with the DWP and 13% actually tried to kill themselves because of them. To be fair, dead people don't fill out surveys, so this data has some inaccuracies, but the successful suicides caused by the disability assessment process is estimated to be about 200 a year. This is what the benefit system does to the most vulnerable people, so it isn't exactly stress free to deal with them when they are less worried about actually killing people. Unsurprisingly it is less stressful to be in employment.

  • Rushing should try getting a job when you a 60 yo white male in this country. We aren't wanted by society. And £818 in benefits a month with a monthly rent of £565 leaves precisely £253 a month for all other bills. I live without heating, any electricity besides the fridge between the hours of 7am and 12pm. I cook outside those times as I have cheaper electric after midnight. My main food source is rice and potatoes. So Rishi, you try living on that.

  • This lie can be propagated because people that believe it have no idea how the benefit system works or have even been to a job centre. My friend became unemployed because the business he worked for went into bankruptcy. He now receives £720 per month from the DWP. He must pay his £550 rent every month which leaves him with £170 for food, electricity and gas. This isn’t a lifestyle choice, it’s abject poverty.

You could get a job after 10 applications and 2 interviews, now it’s 500 applications and 5 interviews but no job offer. The skilled worker market is incredibly saturated, with people making the same in stagnant salary office jobs as they could delivering food for Tesco. Everywhere is offering between 25-30k and nothing higher, both with no experience and 5 years experience required. Job market is broken.
