#LabourAusterity
#LabourAusterity - whilst we have @snp.org and our own Government to defend against some of this, ultimately Labour controls the purse strings. To stop that we need #ScottishIndependence.

You have a listen. Is he mocking the Tories or Labour? Can't tell? Me neither.

#LabourAusterity
Kevin Bridges mocks Labour,

"They after disabled people? That takes balls."

"And through disabled people's doors. This is your fault, mate. You"

"We could go after tax, avoid multinationals"

"We could go after Vodafone, Starbucks, Amazon, Google"

"But it's your fault, You"

And remember - Labour in Scotland is exactly the same party.
Disability benefits cuts by UK Labour Govt would be 'devastating' and 'increase absolute poverty',

Govt to run with Tory plans declared illegal by Court.

2.8m people chronically ill due to poor healthcare.

Some will lose over £400 a month.

How many will die?

Seriously? This 🥀Labour Minister agrees with the comparison between PIP for disabled people ... and pocket money.

#LabourAusterity is a choice.
Yesterday evening Darren Jones apologised on Pestons programme for his comments comparing Personal Independence Payments received by disabled people with kids getting pocket money.

On LBC a couple of hours earlier Rachel Reeves backed the comparison.

LABOUR LISTENS TO WEALTHY NON-DOMS' WORRIES - BUT SAVAGES THE SICK AND DISABLED!

Have a read of my article, written before this scandalous revelation.

Why isn't the BBC questioning Labour about its justification for huge benefit cuts and why they won't consider alternatives? Instead it's presented as inevitable and not as a political choice.

#LabourAusterity
There is an alternative to Government welfare cuts - a 2% tax on wealth. There is no shortage of money here, we just need a fairer approach to tax - take more from the few not the many.

So my MP said Labour had told him that levelling up round 3 projects awarded by the Tories worked be honoured. Now Labour saying it is "minded" to cancel them. And Perth gets the same treatment.

Bring back the EU Regional Development Fund! Much larger, and grants were honoured.

The Tories teaming up with Labour to punish disabled people. Something I thought I would never see. Utterly repugnant #cutskill #labourausterity #killerkendall

Awful. Labour using their majority to force this through of all things! #newnastyparty #Labourbetrayal #labourausterity #takingthepip
Angela Rayner says that Labour MPs who rebel against the Welfare Bill will lose the whip

There are 403 Labour MPs

Any Labour MP who votes for withdrawing PIP support from the disabled as outlined in this welfare bill is an absolute disgrace

Disability Rights UK spokesperson told a parliamentary committee meeting that the planned cuts "are going to lead to deaths"

I'd love to hear from anyone proud to admit that they're a Labour supporter, how they defend Reaves and her #LabourAusterity.
Labour need to stop punishing the victims of disabilities, sickness etc and start punishing the REAL PROBLEM the rich, the corrupt, tax dodging and non-dom tax dodging CRIMINALS! THEY ARE THE REAL PROBLEM IN THE UK! But if course this is Starmers #Liebour and ....
Disability benefits system actually good for the economy, economists say
Disability benefits have a positive impact on people's wellbeing which outweighs the cost of administering them, economists have found.

"policy priorities that truly serve the community" ... like cutting benefits for disabled people and forcing an entirely unnecessary #LabourAusterity on the UK?

Labour MSP pretends he's in a different universe where these things aren't happening...

Kendall states going ahead with cuts is “crucial to fighting the rise in populist politics”. I say stopping them is essential partly for the same reason. Mostly because there is no justifiable reason for plunging hundreds of thousands of disabled citizens into poverty. #Stopthecuts #LabourAusterity

The face of a kind, caring & compassionate Liz Kendall cutting 5 Billion from the welfare budget, because Chancellor Rachael Reeves can’t do the basic MATHS! 🧮 Labour won’t Tax the wealthiest in society are you YES yet❓

It’s diabolical that a Labour government is doing nothing to lift people out of poverty. Instead they are happily making cuts they know will push more adults and children into it. It makes me sick. #childpoverty #benefitcuts #wealthtax #LabourAusterity

And they're off again. Starmer who promised "My politics will tread more lightly on the lives of others" is set to attack disabled people once again. Did he learn nothing from last time? #labourausterity #disabilitycuts #redtories #starmer

Whatever Labour claims, spending on public services *isn't* constrained by the City.

The *only* thing stopping Labour is its ideological choice to keep underfunding. Just like the Tories. Here's a neat explainer of how unnecessary #LabourAusterity is.

Is the City really stopping Rachel Reeves from doing what Labour wants, or is she just using it as a convenient excuse for her neoliberal austerity? This is the audio version: This is the transc...
