Sarah O'Connor (FT) makes a good point about the UK's low rate of sick pay:

'I wonder if this is one explanation for the rise in the number of people who don’t work & claim health-related benefits instead: if you’re struggling with a long-term condition & it’s very financially punishing to hang on to your job because you lose most of your wage every time you’re too ill to go in, that might be a push to leave employment altogether'

Long-term sickness needs better support!

The Government literally made many of these people unfit for work, by abandoning Covid protocols too soon. They owe them support.
