Prominent Labour adviser, <strong>Alan Milburn</strong>, has sparked controversy by suggesting that the long-term sick should be compelled to seek employment as a strategy to bolster the economy and mitigate the contentious debate over immigration. Milburn argues that this approach would not only alleviate welfare expenses but also counter the surge of right-wing populism by reducing dependency on immigrant labor. He highlights that a significant portion of those currently not in the workforce due to medical reasons express a desire to work, yet face barriers to employment without sufficient support or requirements to seek work. This proposal aims to transform the 'crazy' welfare system, emphasizing the need for reform to encourage economic participation among the long-term sick.
