Understand that normally loyal Labour MPs who had never intended to break the whip are considering doing so because of the child poverty figure. Serious discontent, though majority not in danger. Conversations abound among Lab MPs trying to size up how big the rebellion might be.

Fascinating Spring Statement snap poll by @mcgregor.bsky.social team @38degrees.bsky.social The verdict - of voters who backed Labour - is scathing. Politics is about choices. And they're making the wrong ones. inews.co.uk/news/politic...

With Labour's proposed cuts many of us are understandably concerned. Adding your name to this petition could help to raise our voices against this horrendous decision. #DisabilityBenefits #DisabilityRights #CallToAction

“In an ideal world, people who lose benefits are going to be in work – but this is a gamble." Labour says its cuts will help people back into work, critics say they will push 250,000 people into poverty. Why has the government taken such a risk?
