Recognizing Depression as a Disability
The imposition of sanctions on individuals with depression and anxiety, while disregarding medical professionals’ assessments, constitutes a form of indirect discrimination and ableism.

In the private sector, £10 billion wasted would mean immediate dismissal, asset recovery, and criminal investigation.
