Should people with mild ADHD be stopped from claiming disability benefits?

Government statistics show the number of people claiming personal independence payments for ADHD with no work requirement rose from 71,528 in July 2024 to 100,207 in April this year, largely among those aged 16 to 24. Four million people now claim disability benefits overall, with at least 40 percent having psychiatric disorders. Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch has said her party would stop people with mild mental health conditions from receiving such benefits.
