Welfare cuts for the poor/disabled were not in Labour's election manifesto.
PM Keir Starmer said: “those with the broadest shoulders should bear the heavier burden”. Then hit the poorest.
Biggest cuts since those imposed by Tories in July 2015.
There is no economic/moral justification.

Hugely unimpressed with the Royal Society.
Sadly this decision massively undermines it's integrity if it can't even enforce it's own rules.

NEW: In November, I wrote a Guardian column headlined 'How to Survive the Broligarchy'. Pretty much everything predicted has now come true. What I'm launching today is part handbook, how to protect ourselves? And part manifesto, how to fight back? Please join me.

How to Survive the Broligarchy
Three months ago, I warned we were entering the age of technoauthoritarianism. It's now here. We can and must fight back.

Letters went out to federal workers this morning stating they were fired due to poor performance. However, all employees had been rated as “exceptional” performers by their supervisors. Please keep these records and pursue wrongful termination claims. Let the lawsuits begin.

As Labour touts more brutal cuts to benefits, how is this different from life under the Tories?
Reeves tweaks non-dom tax law because of “concerns” but ignores the cries of disabled, old, sick, poor. Poor are expendable. Wealthy potential donors less so.
Govt must change direction.
