Quote:Disability benefits should go to "really disabled people" not those "taking pills at home, who suffer from anxiety", a key Theresa May aide says.
No 10 policy unit head George Freeman said personal independence payments (PIP) reforms were needed to roll back the "bizarre" decisions of tribunals.
Ministers say the changes will save £3.7bn but leave a "strong safety net".
But disability charity Scope criticised Mr Freeman's "crude" distinction between physical and mental health.
