A piece from ITV News on a report from the UN.
Cuts to services have disproportionately hurt the disabled. So this is wider than just welfare payments. Not news to us of course.
The government naturally rejects every criticism.
You know, if the entire world says you are wrong it behoves one to actually consider that they might have a point.

I have yet to see any politician showing signs of intelligence or honesty and one or other is required to admit wrong doing.
