VIDEO -Tory MP Heidi Allen speech AGAINST her own party’s disability cuts

By Joe Mellor, Deputy Editor

Tory MP Heidi Allen made an impassioned speech against her own party’s plan to cut ESA (Employment and Support Allowance) by £30 a week to disabled people.

She pleaded with her fellow MPs to “look after the little man,” sadly they ignored her and voted to slash the benefit from £102.15 to £73.10 for sick and disabled people deemed fit for “work-related activity”.
