Labours, Jeremy Corbyn’s pledge to Scrap Universal Credit, amongst other pledges.

Full statement for the above here https://labour.org.uk/press/full-text-of-jeremy-corbyns-speech-in-northampton/Jeremys speech.But if I told you those aren’t my words but the damning verdict of the United Nations, no less, you get a sense of the damage wrought by nine years of Tory austerity.Their policy of Universal Credit pushes people into the jaws of loan sharks forces proud men and women to depend on food banks and turfs families out of their homes.
The Tories promised it would make work pay. But more and more people who are falling into poverty have jobs.
A Labour goverment will change the whole culture of the DWP. It will become the Department for Social Security to give people dignity and respect.
Social security shouldn’t be about forcing women into the indignity of having to fill out a four-page form to prove their child was born as a result of rape as 500 women had to do last year.
Labour will scrap Universal Credit and introduce an emergency package to immediately end its worst aspects. Ending the benefit cap and the two child limit, which alone will stop up to 300,000 children being pushed into poverty.
And, yes, that means the end of the disgusting rape clause.
We’ll end the five week wait for the first payment, end the Tories’ vicious sanctions regime, end the bedroom tax and – because we’re committed to reducing poverty – we’ll end the benefit freeze.
We’ll control welfare spending by tackling low pay and insecure work … and rip-off rents. Social security shouldn’t be subsidising bad employers and greedy landlords.
Left Marsha & right Margaret.

This is what the Tory's have created, they care for no one but their rich pals.
Labour has caused this to in the past, by bringing out the much dreaded WCA, and privatised assessments, the tories have carried on this culture but much worse for the disabled and vulnerable.
Labour is different now, and realise they realise this is all wrong, and now they want to make a big change by reversing this despicable damage that the tories have now created and been made a lot worse.
I said to myself as I'm also disabled, I was gonna just give in, but decided no I will use what energy I have to fight for us, I then joined a group of campaigners and we are have and have made the DWP to change some of the wrongs their doing to claimants.
I believe change can happen but we as a collective can force it, by voting the tories out.

Labour’s pledge to scrap Universal Credit is a win-win for both staff and claimants.

Also the hated bedroom tax will also be scrapped, even the 2 child limit will be scrapped, and the rape clause where the person who has to prove she was raped, also will be scrapped. Another thing too is the benefit freeze lifted, and social rents will be brought in line.
The changes that are planned will give low paid workers and help the disabled and vulnerable.
I can't wait to start this campaign, it's a time to get this right.
We will push this hard, and fight tooth and nail to get these messages across, this will be our chance far a change, for the better.

The state pension age is set to rise to 75 over the next 16 years — based on a plan by new PM Boris Jonson ’s favourite think tank.
It would go up to 70 just nine years from now as the change is phased in.
