Mark Twain once said that “If voting made a difference, they wouldn’t let us do it. “
Gotcha, 1.299bn cut instead. Can’t complain if it’s a pound less then planned. /s
Maybe fix the NHS, Metal Health and Disability Support, and you will find that a lot people will actually not need the benefits in first place. Talk about treating the Symptoms not the illness.
> The controversy is another headache for the government, particularly as the savings from the Tory-conceived plan are already baked into the Office for Budget Responsibility’s forecasts for the public finances that will underpin the budget on 30 October.
This isn’t Reeves waking up one morning and deciding to cut disability benefits. This is the tories planning the cut before the election, knowing Reeves will either get awful PR for going ahead, or she’ll need to find *another* £1.3bn to not do it.
This is a political landmine, left by the last administration. Reeves needs to disarm it, but I blame the tories that it’s there in the first place.
I know of at least 3 people who claim disability who are more than capable of working. The whole system is fucked.
