That is a great article that you have researched from The Guardian, and I would think it reflects the general attitude and thoughts of the overwhelming majority of GPs?

It is an interesting article.

But when at the end it says it is "intended as an honest reflection of a typical long-term sickness case", it's likely to add fuel to the fire of public opinion that people on long-term sickness benefits are actually capable of work but would rather not, unless they can get just the type of work they want.
