利兹西部和普赛的当地工党呼吁雷切尔·里夫斯总理放弃削减残疾津贴的计划。 The local Labour Party in Leeds West and Pudsey is calling on Chancellor Rachel Reeves to abandon plans to cut disability benefits. 该党通过了一项反对政府提案的动议,政府提案旨在减少领取疾病津贴的人数,并严格个人独立津贴的资格标准。 The party has passed a motion opposing the government's proposals, which aim to reduce the number of people on sickness benefits, tightening eligibility criteria for the personal independence payment (PIP). 此举可能会削减约 800,000 人的福利，政府希望到本十年末每年节省 50 亿英镑。 This move could cut benefits for around 800,000 people, with the government hoping to save £5 billion annually by the end of the decade. Reeves的当地政党认为,残疾人不应首当其冲地遭受经济管理不善的影响。 Reeves' local party argues that disabled people should not bear the brunt of economic mismanagement.
