Everyone's a Winner

In addition to its moral and economic virtues, Team Starmer's assault on the disabled will have the political virtue of putting extra pressure on local services. Being notoriously un-entrepreneurial in their attitudes, the disabled and chronically unwell may be disinclined to greet the withdrawal of their pittance with appropriate British get-up-and-go, despite the likelihood that many unpaid carers will be empowered to get on their bikes and find a real job. Worsening health conditions will lead to increased dependence on the hated local authorities, whose care budgets are already subject to invigorating competition from pot-holes and bin collections. A poorer quality of council service, delivered with increasing delays, will be just the thing to incentivise and opportunify further cleansing involvement by Team Starmer's chums in the private sector; yet still there are some whose perceptions are so disabled and whose morals are so unenlightened as to see some sort of disadvantage in all this. Doubtless it is for the improvement of such as these that Team Starmer intends turning the idle into fodder for the next wog-bombing exercise and to promote the advantages of assisted expiry for the militarily unviable.
