Tories: Labour needs to be tougher on welfare reform
The Conservatives have branded the Government’s welfare reforms as too little, too late, with Work and Pensions Secretary Liz Kendall being urged to be tougher.
Shadow work and pensions secretary Helen Whately told the Commons: "The fact is £5 billion just doesn’t cut it.
With a bill so big, going up so fast, she needed to be tougher." Report by Covellm.
