Capping benefits needs to be the start of welfare reform

MPs' salaries must be too high if a former minister believes that a proposed £500-a-week cap on benefits is 'immoral'; most households would love to take that home each month.

Former children's minister Sarah Teather said that the government announcing a plan to cap household benefits was to 'deliberately stoke up envy and division between people in order to gain popularity at the expense of children's lives is immoral. It has no good intent'.
