The Backbench rebellion grows on ‘ruthless’ benefit cuts that can push 50,000 children to poverty
The government assessment was shot by a wild backbench rebellion today, as welfare deductions could push more than 250,000 more people, including 50,000 children, to poverty.
MPs, after the spring statement in Commons, Lord Rachel Reeves’i lined up to roll. They branded their deductions as ‘cruel’ and asked for more tax on the people of the people.
Ms. Reeves claims that it will save $ 4.8 billion after its reforms destroyed the October budget.
The internal impact assessment by the Ministry of Labor and Pension (DWP) found that 3.2 million families would lose an average of £ 1,720 per year by April 2030.
And 3.8 million families earn £ 420 per year, while the evaluation also found that 150,000 caregivers will lose a total of £ 500 million.
In Commons, MS Reeves defended the challenges, hit the welfare system ‘broken’ and ‘all generations’ we are writing on the benefits of the disease’ without changes.
‘When asked whether he punishes and punishes the most vulnerable,’ There is nothing progressive and there is no effort to lose control of public finances.
“ This is what the previous government … Prices increased. It wasn’t the rich who paid for it, ordinary people and fixed income. ‘

At an evening press conference at Downing Street, he added: ‘Our plans will cause more people to fulfill their jobs, and to pay a good fee to remove themselves and their families from poverty rather than increasing increasing poverty.’
However, at the beginning of Commons, he encountered a criticism threshold from workers’ deputies, while revealing the details of savings.
Debbie Abrahams, the President of the Labor and Pension Committee, said: ‘All evidence indicates that the deductions in health and disability benefits will lead to increasing poverty, including serious poverty and worse health conditions.
‘How will it help to make people more sick and poor, to drag our economy and people into things?’
DWP assessment: ‘We estimate that there will be 250,000 people (including 50,000 children) in relative poverty after housing costs at 2029-30.’
Relative poverty is the time when people can meet the basic needs, but beyond that they struggle to pay for goods. In the meantime, absolute poverty is the time when people struggle to meet even the foundations such as food or home bills.
The assessment found that cuts could push up to 200,000 people into absolute poverty.
One of the ten working ages claims to be a disease or disability. This number increased by 800,000 before the pandemi – a 45 percent fluctuation. And those who claim a personal independence payment (PIP) with a disability advantage are doubled to 4.3 million.
In accordance with Labour’s reforms, the compliance for the PIP will be made more rigid and will completely cut or reduce payments for approximately 1 million plaintiffs.
Ms. Reeves said that if your ability to work is limited, the universal credit health element (UC) paid for new plaintiffs will be reduced from almost 97 £ to £ from April 2026. And for existing plaintiffs, it will be frozen at the existing rate by 2030.

Mrs. Reeves claims that it will save $ 4.8 billion after its reforms destroyed the October budget.
Peer Lord Blunkett (in the picture) said: ‘I think there were a few surprises. One was something other than a savings worth 500 million pounds from the welfare budget ”
However, after the Budget Responsibility Office rejected its first treasury forecasts, it was forced to make more deduction in eleven hours today.
The guard said that he could not evaluate some reforms and could not put the savings for £ 3.4 billion instead of £ 4.8 billion. This meant that Mrs. Reeves had to raise the health element for new plaintiffs almost half.
Peer Lord Blunkett, who referred to the latest interruptions: ‘I think there were a few surprises.
‘One was something other than a savings worth 500 million pounds from the prosperity budget, I didn’t feel that it was a good way to make a very good policy.’
After defending the cuts, Darren Jones, the Treasury Chief Secretary, came across the procession after defending them by moving them to encourage their children to encourage Saturday jobs.
He told BBC: ‘If I told my children:’ I will cut your court 10 £ 10 a week, but you should go and get a Saturday job ‘. This basically impact assessment will say that my children have fallen £ 10, regardless of how much money they have received from Saturday. ‘
Reeves said that their efforts to hire people by encouraging children to take a Saturday business were not ‘correct analogy’.
Liberal Democrats Welfare Spokesman Steve Darling branded the words ‘incredibly humiliating’ and added that ‘the government’s decision owes an apology to hundreds of thousands of people whom the decision pushed to poverty’.
