Budget Resolutions

Proceeding contribution from Janet Daby (Labour) in the House of Commons on Thursday, 1 November 2018. It occurred during Budget debate on Budget Resolutions.

Does my hon. Friend agree that the Welfare Reform Act 2012 and the Welfare Reform and Work Act 2016 caused £34 billion of cuts, resulting in 14 million people, including 4 million children, living in poverty? The Government have reduced the deficit by taking from the poor instead of from those who have much more—the wealthy.
