This is not policy. Yet. It’s just another attempt to create an argument in an empty room by right wing media. The same way that hysteria was manufactured over Winter Fuel Payment changes.

How can that not be their thinking, if this is their green paper?

Green papers are discussion documents. There is no harm in enumerating all the options. The harm comes from picking the bad ones.

Actually … I take that back. The paper is clear about more support and better targeting and does not state “reduce benefits”
I was wrong.
