Ms. Maskel accused the Treasury of cutting the major benefits of “fixing”, accusing them of being selected to “find savings on the back of people with disabilities”.
“It was always going to be wrong”, she said.
The MP also warned Sir Kir that he had to “hear” for critics of his policies, saying that Kalyan Rebellion was “very difficult learning state” for him.
