  Following Howards tip there I watched the programme. It certainly was interesting and displayed a catalogue of unfortunate cases, unfortunate people, who were given a hard time in this new system. Several of the people featured were told they were fit for work only to die shortly afterwards. The system is too rough and ready and getting it wrong much of the time. The process to reduce claimants is costing a phenomenol amount in itself, with many cases being referred to tribunals later all at great cost. The process of assessment goes on continuously with little or no time between each patients asessments.
  
  Chris Grayling Conservative Minister..is not the hardest nosed creature about to be honest...but he did come across as uncaring on this. He looked somewhat out of character.
  
  He is looking though to reduce the amount of time between assessments.
  
  Professor Harrington the man in charge, who was featured on the programme, admitted the system was flawed. Latest news is that he will be frogmarched to the exit shortly !!
