A spokesman for Disability Rights UK said many of those passed fit will not, in fact, be capable of entering the workplace in any meaningful sense due to physical or mental health problems.
"They are finding people fit for work when they aren't and they are not even giving them the support they need to get a job. It is a disgrace," he told BBC News.
I said this months and months ago. that it'll just be a cut in money by stating they're fit for work. and knowing full well that the prospect of them finding work is very low.

infact it'll be like you can carry on as you were. you don't have to come in and sign on. we'll probably do a formality check once a year, but not to worry if you don't hear from us. it was just about taking money off you by putting you down as fit for work.

we'll probably be hearing from a load of these kind of people stating exactly that. that they have just been abandoned. and just get given their reduced money with no questions asked.

the hard working people won't have a problem with them either now. they'll be told that they're ok now and to leave them alone. we've reduced their money substantially.

but I do think that they should give those that they have deemed as fit for work a card or something, that they can display to someone who's uncertain. so they can prove that they're fit for work and not to be bothered anymore.
