Proceeding contribution from Rachel Reeves (Labour) in the House of Commons on Monday, 5 March 2012. It occurred during Opposition day on Living Standards.
Living Standards
My hon. Friend is right when she sticks up for the people of Stoke, who, like many of our constituents, will be hard hit by the changes, which do nothing to encourage people to go back to work, and instead encourage people to stay on the dole, because they will be better off on benefits than in work.
