“Wake-up electoral call”: dozens of parliamentarians of work risk losing majorities for well-being cuts | Work

At least 80 Labor deputies are at risk of losing most of the proposal Wellness cutsAccording to the data shared between Labor Deputies who are warning to the Government that the changes “represent a real electoral risk”.

The analysis suggests almost 200 Work The deputies have a smaller majority of the number of recipients of personal independent payments in their electoral colleges, a significant number in the “red wall” seats of northern England.

Not all those recipients will be influenced by changes, but more than 80 Labor parliamentarians have a majority that is smaller than the number of disabled people who could see their beneficial cuts.

The parliamentarians say Vote now scheduled in June.

Rebels believe they are able to guarantee up to 50 parliamentarians to vote against changes. A parliamentarian who opposes changes, called Whips, suggested that some restless parliamentarians could be safely authorized to refrain from the votes.

A number of disaffected but loyalist parliamentarians who do not want to rebel have encouraged a personal letters of personal letters directly to Keir Starmer to solicit the changes to the cuts or commitments of multiple actions to face poverty before the vote, saying it was “useless” Press the ChancellorRachel Reeves.

Other hardline parliamentarians are planning a mass public intervention in the weeks following the return of Parliament, it has been said to the Guardian.

The budget office has suggested that about 52% of current applicants do not have a fairly high score in their current evaluation to remain suitable for Pip, although many could challenge the revaluation.

The cabinet and senior ministers are among those who have smaller majorities than the number of components that should be influenced by the changes.

They include the secretary of justice, Shabana Mahmood, and the secretary of health, Wes Streeting, as well as the Minister of Safeguard, Jess Phillips, the Minister of Education, Nia Griffith and the Minister of the homeless, Rushanara Ali.

The list also includes high -profile parliamentarians that are vulnerable to the reform, such as the parliamentarian of Barnsley South, Stephanie Peacock, Rotherham, Sarah champion, Kingston on Hull East Mp, Karl Turner and Grimsby MP, Melanie Onn.

Some parliamentarians with healthy majorities may be at risk, they show the data. In Easington, where Grahame Morris has a majority of over 6,000 reforms, there are more than 12,600 PIP applicants. In Huddersfield, Harpreet Uppal has a majority of over 4,500 on the green, but 9,387 PIP applicants.

The parliamentarians are also warning that even members of the applicants’ family will be affected significantly or they feel strongly towards the cuts, which means that the chain effect could be much greater.

The data also show the absolute number of voters in the Labor electoral colleges – even with great majorities – in which people receive pip. In some Labor electoral colleges, including Easington, Blaenau Gwent and Aberfan, one out of five of the population of working age receives PIP payments.

In the Swansea West headquarters of the pensions minister, Torsten Bell, one in six person receives Pip. In the Wolverhampton seat of Pat Mcfadden, it is about one in seven, similar to the headquarters of the Secretary of Education, Bridget Phillipson, in Houghton and Sunderland South.

The proposals will introduce severe bars higher for access to support for disability to those who are inside and out of work, as well as reducing the highest rate of universal credit (UC) that applies to those who are too disabled to work.

The data were released among the Labor parliamentarians, including Andy McDonald, former minister of shadow employment. He said: “The government’s well -being reforms have disproportionately affected components that can less afford it and this is particularly so in the electoral colleges of many Labor parliamentarians. It involves a real electoral risk.

“We know that low-income people spend the money they bring home to their local communities, so this policy is sucking money from our local cities. The government should give priority to its anti-partà strategy before hurrying the decisions to reform the well-being that damage the needy”.

Neil Duncan-Jordan, Poole’s Labor deputy, said it was clear that the cuts would have an electoral impact. “It is quite clear from the recent survey by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation that most people who voted for work in 2024 believe that the changes proposed to the benefits of disability are wrong.

“It is not only morally wrong to hit the poor, but it is also a foolish electoral. The government must collect the green newspaper and return to the drawing table.”

The deputy Richard Burgon said he hoped that the data would launch alarm among the work colleagues. “There is no moral case for these cuts to the benefits for disabilities. But for the Labor parliamentarians they have not yet convinced that it is morally wrong to balance the books on the back of the disabled, these data will be an electoral awakening call,” he said.

“This cruel policy not only betrays our values, but the risks that contribute to this being a Labor government to a term. The idea that the voters affected by these cuts have no other place to go” is an obsolete absurdity.

DWP promised a 1 billion pound employment package to help the most disabled people in work and additional support for disabled people who have no prospects to work.

The data were completed by Julia Modern, the blanket of Disability Group of poverty campaigns. “Some of us will lose up to £ 10,000 a year, which is almost 60% of the revenue that a disabled person who cannot work due to disability receives through universal credit and pip,” he said. “At least 350,000 people will consequently be pushed into poverty, joining the 4.8 million disabled people who already live in poverty in the United Kingdom.

“The results suggest that the work is committing a colossal political error. We urge the backbencher of the work to do the right thing: to speak and say that they will not vote for cuts so cruel and bad thoughts.”

A spokesman for the Department for Labor and Pensions said: “We have been clear that protecting people in need is a principle on which we will never go down to compromise … our reforms will unlock the work for sick and disabled people who can and want to be in employment … ensure that they are supported to live with dignity and independence, while they will ensure that all those who can realize the benefits of the work are predictable and support to do it. “
