it was never just about a sick note plus in any case most would be seeing a specialist as well as a GP before qualifying for benefits

it is a far better way of doing things than having non qualified people deciding on this and who get it wrong so often the wrong way over half of appeals are successful which means a lot of disabled people have to go through even more red tape because of the incompetence of the current system

the whole idea that Dr's cant be trusted is daft and as far as i am concerned one put about to just keep civil servants in jobs who i definitely know i don't trust
