• How Britain stopped working under Labour

  Six million people is greater than the population of Norway. But that’s how many British people of working age are claiming benefits instead of working, so said Kemi Badenoch at a press conference this morning about how to “get Britain working”.With more workless households than the population of Estonia (1.4m), and one in four people now self-reporting as disabled, Camilla Tominey and Tim Stanley ask how Britain became one big welfare state, explain why Labour’s workers rights bill isn’t going to help, and look at whether the Conservatives’ promise to review the whole work and welfare system will be enough.
