Brits betrayed Jeremy Corbyn- true socialist whp was for the many not the few ,so they reapinh what they sow

Pip needs to be stopped to many lazy 20 plus on it claiming mental health issues but on the top rate of pip and getting brand new cars
does rayner forget her roots?…nodding away in agreement
Makes me laugh making room on pip for Muslims and immigrants over a million. labour councillors leaving 😂😂 that’s what he wants. Just seen on talk tv 700 islamist in government. This is why labour are doing what they are doing. U.K. had it. No coming back from what islamist government are doing 😡
It's what this government are having to do, to recover from 14 years of non investment corruption and lunatics like Johnson & Truss running the country
I believe they should do community service like letter picking and maintaining parks
How much are they sending to Ukraine???
then we spend 30 bill on a yellow sub and some Knick knacks, and then she says get more people back into work when there is no jobs for young people this country is delusional
Tories run the Labour Party now. Get used to it.
I am 100% behind this proposal, it’s about time, this should have been bought forward along time ago. I’m fed up of leeches on society making themselves a nice nest with my tax money. Benefits need to be a lot more strictly monitored and not given out to any benefit ponts claiming they have this and that! I’ve worked with people paralysed from the waist down that work 40 hours I’ve worked with people with depression that work 40 hours a week, the UK is becoming lazy and more whiny by the minute. I hope this proposal goes ahead, it will be exactly what the leeches on society need, get a job people there’s tons of them out there!
TAX THE RICH! NOT THOSE IN NEED OF HELP!
650 mps making 100k each could save 35million a year by cutting there wages in half
We are proud to be a leading partner in providing vital support to Ukraine. In total, the UK has committed £12.8 billion for Ukraine: £7.8 billion in military support. £5 billion in non-military support.
Properly regulating benefits to prevent lazy people taking advantage of them is the fix. Cutting benefits from people who need them is not the fix.
Yes to give to immigrants and in pocket
I can’t believe keir Starmer approves this….. I’m done with Labour….
I can’t believe Labour have done this ……. This is just awful…..
EVIL
why no coverage on the terrorist attack yesterday?
They should be going after the folk who are working. And with businesses and claiming Pip and universal credits. And saying there not living with there spouse. Mostly Muslims and there relations I know of 5 😡
What is it with these clowns and spectacles do they think it makes then more trustworthy and intellectual or something pathetic is Timmy Mallett advising them or something 😆
Welcome to 2025 folks!
They are idiots. So many are on benefits who could work.
Isn't 5 billion equivalent to a small chunk of what we spend on foreign aid annually?
What do Labour have against the disabled?
This is an attack on our most vulnerable people and I hope there’s a protest so big this cruel gov backs off!z
Cuts for the poorest people to give tax cuts to the rich.
They would save a load of money if they just stopped sending it to other countries and giving it away to illegal immigrants!
Put Great British people first!
They just want your tax so they can give it to Abdul from Albania and his mates
Best thing they’ve done since getting in. Hard working tax payers are tired of paying for people who don’t want to work. People who physically can’t work should be looked after
Its quite easy to save 5 billion. Yes. Stop shipping pallets of tax payers cash to Zalenskii. Zalenskii is the most corrupt proffesional beggar/ leader in eastern europe by far.
I guess all new boat arrivals will need benefits themselves and someone has to pay for it… basically robbing Peter to pay Paul.
An extra 5 billion to send to Ukraine🤣🤣
Some more of Brexit benefits.
Why are we having a benefits overhaul when we need a government overhaul? How many mps and civil servants do we have being paid a hell of a lot more than any benefits programme offers. How many past PMs do we pay £10000 a month to, every month, for the rest of their lives. The top 127 wealthiest people in the UK have more wealth, combined, than Poland. How much money to foreign aid? I agree the benefits system needs a reform, but as usual, what is top of the governments hierarchy of importance does not align with the public,at least in my own opinion.
When benefit cuts have to balance about Tax payer make cuts as well sir
Saving nothing. Not starting for years. What a waste of time
Just look at all those people sat in that fancy room claiming travel expenses….surely they know how to facetime? Surely that would save alot money year round.
How much public money do they get to make these decisions?
We should all vote to cut their pay checks seeing as they haven't done a single positive thing for the people of this country. Unless this is not a democracy?
53 months until the last possible date for the next election
STOP BENEFITS LET LAZIES WORK
My daughter will lose her incapacity benefits because she's 20. We have to support her but our benefits are also potentially cut. So how do we live? I'm bedbound, my husband is post stroke. She's housebound. So how????

SKS has spent more time on UKRAINE than his countrymen . With lots of unresolved issues at home, he is busy in making noise on international platform which is mot talen vary seriously.
What about all those refugees working in proper jobs and paying taxes? They work in the black market and contribute ZERO to this society.
If we protected our borders, would save billions on illegal migration, picking on the disabled is an easy target for the government.
