Rishi Sunak has his pledges...

As always folk turn and spin a message into an tirade of hate .

He is right in what he points out .

GP 's are not the right group to issue sick notes 11 million sick notes is too many. They can detect sickness but not fit to work as that requires a whole raft of other considerations to take place only an employer can answer ,doctors haven't got that intel of job content etc ??..

Of course people with minor anxieties or slight disabilities would be better served and have a better healthy work life balance ( that pure common sense ) sitting at home thinking I am unwell is a dangerous thing for those with anxiety , exercising the mind in a work environment around people is the best for them in a work where they have contact and a social interface . Also not exercising say a strain back or leg is also not healthy either , light duties in work is the answer.

Anyways over to you Sir Kier & two home Ange .. ( remember two jag John )

GPs should not be responsible for issuing sick notes. Employers should. BINGO!
