Tory MP Heidi Allen made an impassioned speech against her own party’s plan to cut ESA (Employment and Support Allowance) by £30 a week to disabled people.
She pleaded with her fellow MPs to “look after the little man,” sadly they ignored her and voted to slash the benefit from £102.15 to £73.10 for sick and disabled people deemed fit for “work-related activity”.
