Keir Starmer confirms No 10 is offering concessions to Labour welfare rebels..
The only concessions that matter are:
No benefit cuts, must increase real value
Equitable distribution of income/wealth
Curbs on profiteering
Anything less is cosmetic and will prolong harms.

They are choosing to go after the worst-off instead.
For a while, many people didn’t know what this government stood for. They do now: tough choices for the poor, endless money for war.
