A farmer who claimed he could not walk 30ft and illegally pocketed £100,000 in benefits was caught on camera herding cattle and climbing fences. David Millward, 55, was secretly filmed by the Department of Work and Pensions carrying bags of animal feed around the field he rented in Coven, Staffordshire. Footage showed him climbing over a fence, filling feeding trays and loading cattle into his trailer all without walking aids and displaying only a slight limp.
