In Parliament this week, I called for the planned cuts to disability benefits to be scrapped.
We should not be balancing the books on the backs of the poorest. Instead, we should be taxing the wealthiest.
If the Government does not drop its plans, I'll be voting against the cuts.

For anyone who visits care homes regularly, you will know how much of a disaster this is
Home Secretary Yvette Cooper says Labour will restrict the number of care workers from abroad. Going forward employers should recruit locally.
