In our community, half of all working-age families with children will be impacted by Conservative plans to cut Universal Credit and Working Tax Credit.

Britain faces record levels of in-work poverty, but the Government continues to push for the biggest overnight cut to social security in modern times, taking £1,000 a year from millions of families.

The Prime Minister must see sense, back struggling families and cancel this devastating cut. Labour will do everything possible to fight this cut and replace Universal Credit with a fairer social security system, because we’re on the side of working families.
