💨 Abstract

Kemi Badenoch, the Tory leader, plans to join Labour rebels to vote against the government's proposed £5 billion cuts to sickness welfare benefits. This move could potentially humiliate Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer and inflict a parliamentary defeat. Around 100 Labour MPs have already expressed their opposition to the cuts. The Tories argue that the cuts do not go far enough, while the government maintains that the reforms will encourage more people to work and sustain the benefits system.
