Britain can’t be a cash machine for the world. Time to stop benefits for foreign nationals so that we can invest more in defence. https://t.co/Xdziv0kqGR

You don’t get a pay rise from your employer when you have another child. But Labour MPs think people on benefits should get ££££ from taxpayers for every child they have. Hear them cheer at spend...

You don't get a pay rise when you have a child. You make your money go further. But from this month, your taxes are funding households on benefits an extra £3,560 per child with no limit. Labour...

Time to overrule the Pensions Minister – who’s hidden a dangerous power in the Pensions Bill. I wrote to his boss (the Secretary of State) to say no government should have the power to choose wher...

Pensions aren’t piggy banks for governments to raid. But this Labour government is desperate. Today they forced through the power to control where your pension savings are invested. @Conservative...

The Pensions Minister wants the power to direct where your pension savings are invested - and keeps claiming this is what the pensions sector wants too. Not true 😡 And anyway, a terrible plan. Pen...

The fight now moves to the Lords. Labour refuse to remove the dangerous mandation power from the Pensions Bill - the Minister’s “short answer” was no. But it's obvious: mandation must go. No gove...

Endless handouts don’t lift children out of poverty. Getting parents into work does. Scrapping the 2-child cap isn’t kind, fair to taxpayers or affordable... yet we're the only party who sees this...

The Government is celebrating using the taxes they’ve taken from businesses (so they can’t afford to employ young people)…to fund state-subsidised jobs…for the very same young people! Today in Pa...

Keep your hands off people’s pensions @RachelReevesMP Labour want a power no government should wield: the power to dictate where pension savings are invested. This is people’s hard-earned money,...

Taxpayers are funding Motability cars for people on benefits which they can't even afford themselves. In the past, being in the ECHR stopped us fixing this. Under @KemiBadenoch @Conservatives woul...

Scrapping luxury Motability cars is a start - but time for Labour to seriously reform the scheme. @Conservatives would end free cars for tennis elbow, acne and ADHD. Motability was set up for the...

If you want more benefits, vote Labour. If you want nationalisation, vote Nigel Farage. Conservatives have a better offer. Grip welfare. Back business. Get growth.

Working-age benefits will cost taxpayers £400 million a day this year. It doesn’t have to be this way. @Conservatives have a plan. Here are 10 welfare new year resolutions for the Government to g...

Another day, another vote by Labour MPs to tax you more… 3 million people will be hit by @UKLabour’s salary sacrifice cap. Because they’d rather tax pension savings than control welfare spending...

New post-budget welfare forecasts out: 📈 Sickness benefits to hit £123bn by 2030, up £15bn PIP up £9bn over 5 years with over 4m people set to claim Not that we’re all getting so much sicker. We...
