But that's not necessarily suppression of a story..
Anyway I think that this really is beside the point.There is no real prof that the sick and incapable are to be targeted in this proposal.The present government aren't stupid and won't want to risk the idea being undermined by someone dying whilst picking up litter because they weren't really fit to work.
