Far too late

Mental health culture has gone too far, says Mel Stride

Britain’s mental health culture is in danger of having “gone too far” and “normal anxieties of life” are being labelled as an illness, the Work and Pensions Secretary has warned.

Speaking as he unveiled plans to make 150,000 people signed off work with “mild” conditions look for a job, Mel Stride said that the UK’s benefits bill was being pushed up by the problem.

In an interview with The Telegraph, he suggested an increased public focus on talking about mental health had led to people effectively self-diagnosing conditions.

It’s revealing when a public figure puts his or her head over the political parapet to state an opinion which has been commonplace for a number years. It indicates how tightly narratives are controlled and highlights the efforts made to suppress worthwhile public debate.

Also revealing are scattered Conservative attempts to sound like conservatives and put some political distance between Conservative and Labour. Far too late of course, but it may sway some.
