Disability Living Allowance.

We all want people who are ill and unfit to get the best treatment possible where benefits are concerned. Most of us surely want substantial support for carers. But, what about the 'leadswingers' - hordes of whom used to pass before me when I was a JP? It is probably not news to many but it was certainly news to me that a large proportion of the 3.2 million currently on DLA are drawing these benefits without ever having been declared 'unfit' by a doctor. They have merely filled in a form. A goodly proportion of these will be genuine but equally - many will not. Each of this group should be checked out. We cannot simply rely on people's honesty - that is at present, a commodity in very short supply.
