Totally hear the frustration, but just to say I am holding fire until the full White Paper is published. What is being pushed now is still based on the £5 billion plan from earlier this year, and the harshest parts were already softened after pushback from MPs, charities and the public. Existing claimants remain protected under those amendments.

Starmer’s reset might look like a power grab, but it does not mean he has everyone under his thumb. The bill has not passed in full, scrutiny continues, and charities are already preparing responses.

We will have the opportunity to push back, just as we did before. Not all MPs are under his thumb; I have no doubt some are already quietly sharpening their amendments.
