You spent 20 years claiming because you were ill not because you were a scrounger, I'm sure you would rather have been fit and working, no doubt the Majority of folk you are blaming for our woes would also like an alternative to being ill.
Once again I suggest that you pick on the guilty few, not the vulnerable majority.

Less I've always said that those in need should get more and would if the ones pulling the wool were disqualified. I can't help but wondering why the system was changed, back when I first became unfit for work, you had a full medical every 26 weeks. Okay they're doing that now but, it should be carried out by doctors, but it sure as hell worked back then. The only difference with me was that I pleaded with the doc not to dump me on the scrap heap, but he wouldn't hear of it, all could say was you're not going to get better your only going to get worse. However, I do have a massive insight into disabled people because I ran the local branch of a national charity for five years, and came across some very iffy people. in fact the people wanting help the majority were no more disabled that your old cat. One guy in particular wanted help to obtain mobility allowance, he was asthmatic or so he said, I told him which form to get and if he wanted I'd help him fill it in, he arrived at my place, you've an idea where abouts that is, with his wife and he was carrying a small child, I just said where did you park your car, oh I haven't got one we came on the bus, but we got of two stops too early at the Town Hall and walked it here. I couldn't believe my ears, I said have you read this form, no he said, well it might be an idea if you did, it says the applicant must only be unable to walk or virtually unable to, and the last thing it say is to give false information disqualifies. He wasn't happy went I refused to aid and abet in a fraud and he left, this was not an isolated case believe me not by a long way
