If we have a large number of people essentially doing nothing that is not good. It's never been good, not good for them or us collectively. It's important to look into why and the I am almost certain you won't find much difference between the parties in power, or indeed any party in power.
Is anybody even talking about looking into why? Dr Sunak said it himself, people aren't more ill than they used to be, nothing to see here. The policy is basically just play chicken with them until they can't eat/live to force them back into work. We can't involve doctors anymore because they are focussed on the health of their patient and that gets in the way of these scroungers being productive little drones.

Problem involving poor person = stick

Problem involving rich person = carrot

We are constantly punching down as a society and it's ****ing sad to see the acceptance of it.
