    I'm concerned that those needing the right mental health support for conditions like anxiety + depression will be pushed into finding work when they shouldn't be, in the Gov's eagerness to get them off benefits. Youngsters had a hard time overall during the lockdowns in enforced isolation, it's no wonder so many have mental health problems now. And it's not their fault that mental health services have been so underfunded. Starting life after school without anything constructive for their future is not a good place to be, but pushing kids into work when they cannot cope will make them worse, not better.

    Late reply as not been too brilliant of late, but just to say so sorry for all you've had to go through Santosha, I do hope the Manchester team are more knowledgeable, I must say they sound as though you have a good chance there. And hopefully by the time you read this your roof is well and truly finished! Don't give up Santosha, you're still alive and things will maybe improve before too long. I/we're all here when you need us, let us know how Manchester goes <hugs> xx

    I totally agree with you, but it seems the government are intent. They can't just be allowed to drive through with any crazy idea & none can happen without anything in place first. It's up to everyone in the community, all the charities & anyone that gives a damn to stand up to them. Hopefully, that includes rather a lot of Labour MPs to step up to the plate too, there has to be more than the odd one with common sense & a heart.

    ETA: Sorry you've been under the weather, hope you're feeling somewhat better now.
