@gbnews's TikTok video "The Prime Minister faces “the fight of his political life” to reform our broken welfare system, Times columnist Fraser Nelson tells GB News on Chopper’s Political Podcast this week. Last summer, the then PM Sir Keir Starmer and then Chancellor Rachel Reeves tried and failed to cut £5 billion from the ballooning benefits bill, but were defeated by over 100 Labour MPs who rebelled. It was perhaps the beginning of the end for Starmer. Pat McFadden, the Work & Pensions Secretary, ordered reviews into “Young people & work”, being undertaken by Alan Milburn, and Personal Independence Payment (PIP), being done by Stephen Timms. Both are due to be published this autumn, though the Milburn report was due before the budget and has now been pushed back. Talking to GB News Chief Political Correspondent, Fraser Nelson, who is leading The Times’ campaign for welfare reform, said he hopes that: “Burnham is delaying the Milburn Review because he knows this is going to be the fight of his political life, and he wants to get everything right before he does it.” 🎧 Chopper's Political Podcast is available now. #AndyBurnham #Labour #welfare #ukpolitics #GBNews" has 7,466 views, 164 likes, 3 comments, 3 shares in the public metrics captured by this index.
