But he also said the test would be to see what work can be done.

Alright, look at that in a slightly different light - what work, if any,
the individual is capable of doing. Is that so wrong? Is there any reason
why an individual shouldn't contribute their bit towards society if the y
are capable, rather than stick out a hand for benefits?
But its the Doctors, consultand and surgeons who say what a person is
capable of, NOT the Government.

But at this stage you don't know how the new proposals will work. You seem
hell bent on meeting trouble half way. Do you think any review panel will
ignore valid input from the medical profession?

It will only take one poor sod being
forced into a job and who falls or hurts himself or someone else so
badly that legal action will be taken.

That is merely scare-mongering.

If I were an employer, I wouldnt want tp employ me or anyone like me

Funnily enough, if I were an employer, I don't think I'd want to employ
you, for no other reason than your attitude alone.


The crux of the matter is whether or not such work will pay as much as
benefits - but that's altogether a different argument.
No the crux of the matter is that vulnerable people will be harassed
and embarrassed into work that they probably are unfit for.
Yep there are probably benefit fiddlers but Im not interested in them.

Mind you, I do find it interesting that the test will take in keyboard and
mouse skills. Wonder how many posters will suddenly go to ground....

Exactly. They coud say "Hey you can operate a computer so we can train
you as a a computer operator" PASS TEST

See above.
Its OK training something to do something. Its another thing to find a
job for that person. when he/she may need a lot of time off work or as
in my case be in bed for weeks on end.

Then I am sure you will have well-documented medical evidence as and when
you are called to any assesment.


Next!.

Your post suggests you are in favour of putting out a hand for benefits
than work if you are capable of so doing.

Shows how badly you misunderstand things

No, it shows how badly you've put your case forward.
