Chancellor warned against PIP cuts that could plunge 700,000 households into poverty Leading charities have issued the Chancellor a stark warning

UK Chancellor urged not to make PIP cuts that could plunge 700,000 households into poverty.

It is war on the poor, not causes of poverty.

Median annual pre-tax wage Β£29,604.
38% of Universal credit claimants are in work.
16m live in poverty.
Lack of healthcare, disabling many

Once again those on benefits are easy targets for this government. The amount of money this country gives away, yet can't look after it's own people is disgraceful. Go after the wealthy and leave the poorest alone! #benefits #labour #disabled

Cutting the benefits, it's always the poor that suffer! Are they cutting shop prices, utility prices and stopping council tax hikes too? Go after the super rich and leave those less well off alone. I bet the MP's will still get a pay increase too.

The concept Nigel Farage is incapable of grasping is human rights are universal - if we start stripping away basic human rights from any section of society then none of us has rights – just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want. I’ll fight that to my last breath

The same Farage that wanted Brexit, yet he couldn't wait to get himself a German passport, so Brexit didn't affect him like the rest of us. He needs less airtime on TV.

Reform UK leader Nigel Farage says

β€œWe need to leave the ECHR so we can deport people that come illegally & take back control of our borders & that’s what the public wants”

Share if you disagree with his populist boll**** the UK should join Russia & Belarus outside the ECHR

Can anyone in government explain what on earth they are doing here. Labour opposed in opposition then Home Secretary Suella Braverman’s abuse of secondary legislation to railroad through these changes by the back door. How can they possibly now be condoning & supporting what she did? It’s a disgrace

Cue much lashing of Labour teeth as they claim it's not enough and that Scotland is still shite. They forget about SNP also helping Scottish pensioners with WFA. Oh and free prescriptions, university fees, school meals for P1-6, busses for under 25 and over 60.

The Crown engine houses at Botallack in Cornwall UK. It’s definitely worth a visit. It’s a place I haven’t been to for a few years, I really need to make the effort and go back.
