PM: Welfare cuts 'promote dignity'
Cameron launches bizarre justification of benefit-slashing
Callous Prime Minister David Cameron claimed yesterday that his vicious welfare cuts are restoring "dignity" to British families.
Mr Cameron spouted a torrent of Orwellian phrases when Labour MPs tackled him about the cruel effects of his policies.
He declared: "We want to see more dignity, more security, more stability in the lives of British families and we are making choices consistent with that."
