#Labour has indicated that the changes, the reductions, in welfare benefits for #UC and PIP are to "encourage people back into work"

BUT

#PIP is an out-of-work benefit. People recieve it to assist with day-to-day living. The matter of employment or not does not enter into it. Their justification for reducing PIP can only be to save the Treasury money

Also

38% of UC claimants are in work. Reducing their benefit can not be seen as motivation for employment because they are already working
