So this is just a rant then based on lousy media reporting and casual observation you don't care enough to actually investigate the real situation for yourself and gain a better understanding of the reality. That's why you have attracted hostility and that hostility is growing as claimants are getting fed up of witch-hunts that never hit the intended target but seem to have unnerving accuracy in hitting genuine claimants. Right now the wait for a tribunal hearing is between 18-24 months and the backlog is growing due to the numbers being deemed fit to work who clearly are not, the assessment is a ridiculously rigged affair criticised by everyone except the dwp.

As said able to walk 20 metres your fit because time taken to do it, manner in which you do it and if your in pain after doing it are not factors considered by the assessment just that you can do it. How many people are fortunate to be within 20 metres of an employment opportunity, I live across the road from a school and that is 35 metres away and pathetic as it sounds I'd be in pain getting there but hey I'm fit by assessment standards.

I used to be appreciative of my benefits and was happy while I worked to pay my contributions so that we had such a system though back then I never thought I'd be needing it anytime soon, now I'm not appreciative like a growing number I'm angry and fed up at constantly being made to feel bad because I receive benefits. Most genuine claimants are like me they don't need the media, politicians and lazy members of the public making us feel like wasters because that's one of the things we feel like all the time because we can't contribute we are worth less.

Get to know some claimants do some half decent research on the reality of things as they are now and then come back criticising the system that's if unlike many of us after you have done some research and gain an understanding your not venting at the politicians who have consistently abused the system more then any claimant ever could and are responsible for the state of it. Our biggest problem in the welfare state is as with many others politicians looking for quick easy fixes that have to be paid for later and all colours of politician have done it just happens at the minute that it's the blues making a complete pigs ear of the job.
