As one Labour MP said “Having a policy that even contemplates making over 100,000 people poor is not what the Labour Party is about”. I love the idea that the Minister can offer a review of a policy which will penalise new applicants immediately but the review will report in 2026. Total cynicism. And she once stood to be leader of the Labour Party.
The father who jumped off the Disney ship to save his daughter wouldn't have been a Labour MP, now would he?
A Labour MP would have phoned a SPAD to take some photos before he did, checked with the Minister to make sure jumping in to save his daughter was OK, then got a speechwriter to write a sad, poignant self-regarding speech for her funeral.
“ government will have to get a grip of its messaging – both with the public, and the PLP..” It’s the policy not just the messaging that’s wrong.

Ill-chosen words.
