TOTAL FURY Over “Perverse Incentives” To Stay On Benefits
Christopher Snowdon and Julia Hartley-Brewer discuss the rise in people claiming long-term incapacity benefits, attributing it to perverse incentives in the UK’s benefit system. They note a significant increase in mental health claims, particularly anxiety and depression, which are difficult to verify objectively.
They also discuss the positive impact of vaping on reducing smoking rates, particularly among young adults, with 1.2% of adults now vaping regularly without ever smoking.
