I don't see what relevance it has. Dee lost a job due to her criminal actions and then was written out of work sometime after when she was diagnosed with depression.
When my husband passed away in 1997 I too suffered depression and found it hard to cope but I carried on working. When I retired I did voluntary work with Age Concern and found that keeping occupied stopped me from feeling sorry for myself. I did have a relative who didn't want to work and found many ways to avoid it and even bragged about it. I also read papers and listen to news regarding benefit cheats. I feel I can give an opinion without receiving stern replies. There are many people who deserve to receive benefits and I have no arguments with them.
