Kemi Badenoch: 'Double amputees run marathons' | James O'Brien reacts

Kemi Badenoch has said that having ADHD should not justify disability benefits as she unveils her plan to cut £36 billion from the welfare bill. James O'Brien thinks her argument is 'horribly crass' and 'dangerous.' She argued that: 'Double amputees run marathons. People who are housebound do wonderful creative work from home. People with autism run some of the biggest tech companies in the world.' The leader of the Conservatives added that 'if you tell a young person that their ADHD means they are defective and they can't do anything, that is likely to be more destructive to their future than the condition itself.' James says that the 'level of ignorance' in her speech 'would be funny if it weren't so heartbreakingly serious.'
