The Department for Work and Pensions has stressed that relying on benefits is 'not a lifestyle choice', as the UK government prepares for £6billion cuts. Labour Party Chancellor Rachel Reeves has sparked concern by refusing to rule out potential cuts to Personal Independence Payment (PIP), a vital support for many. With welfare reform and social security on the agenda, the future of benefits in the UK remains uncertain, amid discussions on universal credit and disability benefits. The government's stance on benefits has significant implications for those claiming PIP and other forms of financial assistance.
