Lovely to see @AlexeiSaylePod on @richardosman's house of games today. Great to see him use his podcast catchphrase "I'm 71!'
Because we all know how well those 400,000 vulnerable people were doing after 14 years of the Tory Party, right?
If mental health charities and disability rights charities both criticise your policy, maybe you should be the one looking for a new job.
🚨 NEW: Rachel Reeves will cut £3 billion from welfare over 4 years in the Budget, with 400,000 long-term claimants losing some benefits to push them into finding work
[@Telegraph]
You can take Jeremy Kyle off air, but so much of culture and bloody government policy is influenced by the same rhetoric.
This is the state trying to enforce something that literally changes people's bodies. Nothing in the article questions the ethics of this. Not one line.
As this scheme is linked to unemployment, it will be initiated by the DWP - an organisation that once asked my Dad "do you still need hearing aids?"
If you expect them to deal with this in a considerate, emotionally sensitive way, you really need to sign-on more.
Mr Loverman was great telly. Brilliantly written, with a lot of heart, and some big laughs as well. Lovely.
