Good article in todays Guardian about PIP and a study thats shown removing ND people from PIP will not making any savings and will likely cause more problems as people will be less likely to work and engage with society.
This exactly because if you can't function at work you need things in place often these may be things that fall outside of reasonable adjustments so the cost falls on you
And also even if your medicated doesn't magicaly mean you can be productive for 8 hours a day so you end up doing less days or hours so if pip can help meet your medical needs whilst also acting as a buffer for lost hours your more likely to be in a tax paying job and I guarantee the tax Nd people pay outweighs the saving they claim it would make
