“Even more stringent benefit cuts are on the cards.” “Ministers are planning billions in cuts to disability benefits.” “the House of Lords economic affairs committee said this might not be enough.”
FFS just legalise euthanasia already. I’d rather get a quick injection than starve to death out on the streets. Even the Nazis were kinder to the disabled, gassing them to death quickly.
Where does it specifically mention disabled people? Welfare includes unemployment benefits.
"Earlier this month, The Telegraph revealed ministers were planning billions in cuts to disability benefits in an attempt to calm market nerves over economic plans.
The annual cost of support payments for people with disabilities and health conditions is forecast to soar from £22 billion to £35 billion by 2029 – a 60 per cent increase.
The Chancellor has pledged to stick to Tory plans to cut £3 billion from incapacity benefits by 2028."
It’s literally at the top of the article before the break, and DisabledAceSocialist included a bit of this in the body of their post. I generally recommend reading an article before asking questions about it, in case the question you are asking is answered in the article.
Quotes from the article:
*ministers were planning billions in cuts to disability benefits in an attempt to calm market nerves over economic plans.
The Chancellor has pledged to stick to Tory plans to cut £3 billion from incapacity benefits by 2028.
Labour must carry out a root-and-branch overhaul of the incapacity benefits system if it is to rein in rising heath-related welfare spending, it added.*
“Sorry poors. We need to leave those of you with disabilities for dead. You see, porky’s SCARED and shoveling more subsidies will make him less SCARED and he might finally decide to make jobs despite it going against his interests!”
Talking about the market as if it was a Lovecraftian entity that must be pleased by sacrifices.
