The welfare state will look after him for the rest of his life so i cant see what he has got to complain about.

it is not clear if the money he receives is enough to live well or not enough to live minimally decently, at least for people who are not familiar with UK's level of average pay for a worker.
Also, that money can be a lot or nothing, it depends on what permanent damage his bod has received: living permanently as a disabled person can be extremely costly, if one has to pay for doctors and cures almost constantly.
If he instead can manage to live without resorting to paid nurses or any other special help, such sum could be well enough.
in sum, it doesn't appear so clear if the money will be much or not.
If he will never be self-sufficient again, it would be not,as anybody living with very old or disabled persons know well.
