Labour MP Rachael Maskell appears close to tears as she 'pleads' with the government to abandon planned welfare cuts 'These Dickensian cuts belong to a different era and a different party', she said

Chaotic, rushed-through concessions drawn up on the back of a napkin are no way to make policy that will affect millions of people. MPs must vote NO on benefit cuts, and work with Disabled people to coproduce reforms to welfare that help Disabled people instead of punishing us.

"We have got this wrong - it is dignified to have meaningful consultation with disability groups and then we will come back". Another emotional and powerful speech by an MP speaking on behalf of his constituents. Imran Hussain MP

"This Bill is a shambles. Asked to vote on a Bill without a true impact assessment that will be so consequential on people across our constituencies. It is morally indefensible. Do not ignore the voices of the people who need it most and hold your head up high" lan Byrne MP

Tragic. Welfare Bill passed by House of Commons: 335 votes to 260. 49 Labour MPs rebelled. Despite govt concessions 700,000+ new claimants will lose universal credit health payments, ÂŁ3,000 a year on average. A two-tier welfare bill. How long will Starmer survive?

I am ashamed that our elected MPs would do this. There is no more important duty than looking out for each other. Than sharing resources. Than having a politics of uplift rather than kicking down. Shame on any MP who voted for this. I am having a sob now. But will fight on.

Halving the UC Health Element means slashing £3,000 a year from over 700,000 sick and disabled people — a £2bn cut that hits those already struggling. It’s wrong to balance the books this way. We need real consultation and a fairer plan that puts people first.

We must never stop reminding Tories about their track record when on their treatment of disabled people during 14 years of government.

🚨 We’re shocked and disappointed. The UK government has pushed through HUGE cuts to Universal Credit for disabled people applying in the future. These cuts will be devastating. They risk pushing even more disabled people to food banks.

🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨 The Government's Universal Credit Bill has passed, rushing it through in one day, without a committee stage where Disabled people's voices could have been heard. It's clear: the government views Disabled lives as nothing more than a cost-cutting exercise

And the Universal Credit bill has passed. Some of the sickest people in the country will suffer needlessly more now. There is no justification, no excuse. Just ugly, cruel choices by ministers too cowardly to tax the wealthy rather than cut the poor. A shameful day for Labour.

Today, I voted against the government’s disgraceful cuts to disability support. Moments before, I joined disability rights campaigners outside Parliament to say: this isn’t over. We will not give up until we have built a society that cares for each other, and cares for all!
