According to them anxiety & depression can just be shrugged off and will improve once sufferers go back to work and stop claiming ESA.

The Tories under Cameron changed DLA for adults to PIP in the hope that it would reduce or stop payments to disabled people. It hasn't in many cases so now they want to start taking a person's illnesses & disabilities into account again and not just how their conditions affect their ability to carry out tasks.
