    It's quite worrying how the government at the moment appears to be singling people out with anxiety and depression.  They aren't taking into consideration the reasons people are feeling that way. There are genuine reasons people are struggling and unable to work. They seem to pick on the most vulnerable in society

    By pretending Covid and lockdown didn't ruin people's livelihoods and health? Young people won't easily forget.

    It's interesting how for ten years of this govt. everything was the fault of the previous Labour govt. (as if) now they are blaming everything on Covid, you really couldn't make it up.

    They really need to be tackling the root cause of all of this. Zero hours contracts, toxic work environments, increased hours for the same pay during a cost of living crisis. The list goes on.
