Want to know why your taxes are going up? Labour MPs see your money as theirs to spend… …on more benefits, funded by more taxes.

If you apply for the Winter Fuel Payment this week you probably won't hear back until March. What good is that for a pensioner deciding whether they can heat their home this Christmas? Labour's winter fuel cut is as incompetent as it is cruel.

Polygamy is illegal in the UK. But if you’ve married 4 wives overseas and moved here, you could claim up to £78,000 in benefits. Paid for by British taxpayers. That is absurd. Conservatives will end this.

Alarm clock Britain is sick of paying out for Benefits Street. Why bother working when you can get £30,000 or even £60,000 on benefits - untaxed. So what's the Government doing about it? Nothing.

Welfare reform is about more than saving money. A life in work > a life on benefits. Writing people off onto sickness benefits is the wrong answer to the mental health problems of our time. #bbcqt

You don't get a pay rise when you have a child. You make your money go further. But from this month, your taxes are funding households on benefits an extra £3,560 per child with no limit. Labour scrapped the 2-child benefit cap & put up benefits. People are asking - why work?

Disability benefits will cost taxpayers £20 billion more by 2029. A surge in claims for mild mental health conditions & neurodiversity is behind it. Handouts aren’t the answer. A Conservatives government will reassess these claims to get people into work, rather than welfare.

Taxpayers are funding Motability cars for people on benefits which they can't even afford themselves. In the past, being in the ECHR stopped us fixing this. Under Kemi Badenoch Conservatives would leave the ECHR and get a grip of Motability.

The state does not owe those who refuse to work a living. Conservatives will end golden tickets to unlimited welfare. If any adult in a household can work, they must.

You don’t get a pay rise from your employer when you have another child. But Labour MPs think people on benefits should get ££££ from taxpayers for every child they have. Hear them cheer at spending billions more on benefits when it’s unfair & the country can’t afford it.

Government could save £2bn by bringing back face-to-face PIP assessments. Ministers say they're doing that, but the numbers tell a different story. So do the empty assessment centres. Time to get a grip of the benefits bill.

Rachel Reeves wanted unfettered control over where your pension is invested. We cut her power grab off at the knees and forced another U-turn. Mandation is a vestige of its former self. But @conservatives know it's wrong in principle. Pensions belong to savers, not ministers.

Enough is enough. Britain can't be a cash machine for the world. No more gaming the welfare system. No more free cars for tennis elbow or acne. Welfare needs fixing, here's how we'll do it 👇

Pensions aren’t piggy banks for governments to raid. But this Labour government is desperate. Today they forced through the power to control where your pension savings are invested. Conservatives voted against it - and we'll do so again in the Lords next week.

Ten million people on benefits isn’t fair and it isn’t affordable. Today I set out my common sense plan.

From today Labour are doubling the average length of time between PIP reassessments. That means they’ll review fewer claims, less often – and waste more of your money. That’s Labour’s only plan for welfare reform. Tax you to pay for Benefits Street.

I forced the Government to reveal the facts on Motability. It cost taxpayers £3 billion this year alone. We have a plan to fix this. Watch below👇

Britain can’t be a cash machine for the world. Time to stop benefits for foreign nationals so that we can invest more in defence.

Your pension belongs to you - not politicians. Tonight in the Lords, Conservatives and cross-party peers will again oppose plans that let Ministers dictate where your retirement savings are invested. Your pension is for your future. Not the Government’s priorities

Only Labour would deliver job-destroying budgets ...and then spend taxpayers' money on government-created jobs. It's absurd, but it's Labour.

Endless handouts don’t lift children out of poverty. Getting parents into work does. Scrapping the 2-child cap isn’t kind, fair to taxpayers or affordable... yet we're the only party who sees this.

Labour did not make plans in opposition. That's why their welfare announcement today took 8 months to cobble together and had almost no original ideas. The Conservatives won't make that mistake. Join our Policy Renewal Programme to get involved 👉
