💨 Abstract
Sir Keir Starmer criticized Britain's increasing welfare bill, nearing £70 billion annually, calling it unsustainable. Despite this, some Labour MPs oppose measures like the two-child benefit cap, which limits state handouts to control spending. Meanwhile, a prison guard was stabbed at HMP Long Lartin, highlighting safety issues. Opposition calls for better protective gear for prison staff, suggesting tasers and stab vests to prevent fatal incidents.
