     As Labour continues to plan on cutting benefits, a new National Institute of Economic & Social Research report concludes that the UK has one of the weakest social security 'safety nets' in the developed world... alongside a low-wage labour market, the economy ensures the poor stay poor. Now Labour plans to make that worse!

     As Max Mosley, one of the reports author sums it up: 'We are neither delivering prosperity through high wages nor security through welfare'!

     Disgraceful!
