STUC to call on British government to end arms sales to Israel and the Scottish government to end enterprise grants for weapons manufacturers
Labour pledges to scrap the Tories' ‘inhumane’ universal credit scheme
Labour leader Jeremy Corbyn is joined by the shadow cabinet after speaking at the party's Annual Conference at the Brighton Centre
LABOUR in government will scrap the “inhumane and unmitigated disaster” of the Tories’ flagship universal credit (UC) benefits scheme, Jeremy Corbyn will announce today.
The pledge goes further than the party’s previous policy, which was to halt the roll-out of UC across the country.
Mr Corbyn will be speaking at a rally in Chingford and Woodford Green with Labour candidate Faiza Shaheen, who wants to unseat former Conservative work and pensions secretary Iain Duncan Smith.
