They aren’t means-tested or linked to employment; they exist to cover the extra daily costs of disability.
Cutting them would be an outright attack on disabled people.
Similar treatment to Wales over HS2 …

She called it “fantasy money.”
The Tories failed to level up the North - now Labour is failing to invest. Broken promises yet again.
We can't let British democracy turn into a plaything for overseas billionaires with short attention spans.
At PMQs, I urged the Prime Minister to work with us to make sure power always sits with the voters, not wealthy foreign oligarchs.
Ed Davey bungee jumping. His arms are spread out wide and his mouth is open.
Taking the leap into Bluesky 👋

MPs have BACKED Sarah Olney's Lib Dem bill on electoral reform. This is a historic day for fair votes.
Today, as we have done for a century, Liberal Democrats are leading the fight for fair votes and making sure that no one can be ignored in our democracy.
A win for Sarah Olney’s 10 minute rule bill - Elections (Proportional Representation). With a majority of 2!
Our country desperately needs a fairer electoral system under which every vote count.
You’ve never heard a Christmas single quite like this before.
