Original Note:
The author fails to explain that, whilst the quoted figure represents spending on disability benefits and incapacity benefits for working-age people, a significant proportion of this spending goes to people who are in work. Disabled does not mean not working. https://ifs.org.uk/news/42-million-working-age-people-now-claiming-health-related-benefits-could-rise-30-end-decade
