THE scale of benefits for the sick has spiralled out of control. Close to 900,000 have been receiving the benefits for over ten years.
Of course, some of these are deserving cases but hundreds of thousands do not merit ie, those who receive the £5m pa for headaches or £100,000 pa for coughs.
The Government is right to be concerned.
