It's fun here ennit?
I can't say I particularly believe one story or another, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle.
I still believe that our culture has changed in the last 15 or so years that allows people to play on certain health issues they might have to dodge the system. I think the teacher who's just been paid £150k compensation shows us just how wrong the thinking is.
Equally, I think there are people out there who probably aren't getting the benefits they are entitled to but not necessarily because they've been cheated out of it, just because they haven't been given the correct information.
Whether this system works, only time will tell but that doesn't mean it's not worth trying.
