The problem is that it is to long winded a process for even obviously disabled people and even causes long waits just to get a disability parking permit.
My brother is a year younger than me and and has cerebral palsy from birth a mental age of 3/4 and never been able to walk, he has been in local authority care for many years but even his carers have to go through a long winded process to get his allowances.
What really annoys me are the
*******s who go cradle to the grave on benefit and have all these specially setup local centres to help them word their claims that are just there to help them milk the system without ever having to work.
I work for my money but I do have a worn hip which I could possibly use to stop working and have one of these places help me milk the system, but I have to much pride in myself and want to work and feel the need to work otherwise I would be bored.
