Credit score

ROUND one to the Daily Mirror, but we shall not cease until universal credit is changed into a system that is fair for all.

Tory Ministers blinked first in agreeing, under pressure, to review the operation of a badly flawed initiative which threatens to inflict financial misery on millions.

But the Government still needs to create a more generous structure, reversing permanently the cruel cuts inflicted by that former Chancellor of the Exchequer, George Osborne.

Work Secretary Esther McVey is no friend of the poor, disabled or workers so her every act must be scrutinised forensically or universal credit will be worse, not better.

We have won a battle. Now for the war.
