I think the whole mental health thing is overplayed generally. People think having a tough or challenging life period equals a diagnosis. I think the majority of those mental health claims are chancers. Quote

An opinion that you are entitled to hold...however, I really can't agree with it in the round. Chancers? Undoubtedly there are some (lots?) Depending on your past mental health experience tough or challenging periods can tip you over the edge. As always shades of grey rather than black or white... Quote

Punching down on benefits claimants - many/ most of whom are in jobs already - is easy but wrong. The gap between the rich and the rest of us is growing. Tax the rich and give the rest of us fair wages, a reduced working week, better pensions and better working conditions. Quote

A reduced working week would require a fair percentage of the lazy ****s to get out their beds and actually do some work in the first place. Better pensions! Well you have about 40 years to get yourself sorted so take at least come responsibility for getting yourself sorted. Better working conditions! FFS, we can't get folk to come into their offices as they prefer skiving at home despite offering free parking, free tea & coffee, discounted canteen, WiFi and loads of other benefits. Younger folk, or at least a decent amount of them, don't accept the premise of having to work at all. If they can be bothered working, they don't like taking instruction, they don't like and can't accept criticism and when things get tough, they just prefer walking away. Taxing the rich is just a cop out and levelling down. Encourage youngsters to aim high and get a good work ethic. Stop being so jealous and petty about others and get on with your own life. Quote

We just lack the political will. Why don't the rich face austerity? Try not buying that extra house or yacht instead of laying off workers? Saw this last week re Denmark.

We could work 33 hours a week on average in the UK and you'd still need to put a gun to folk's heads to get them outside in winter. Quote
