How do you feel about the government's recent announcement on cuts to benefits?

The UK government’s recent announcement about benefit cuts—including disability benefits, Universal Credit, and departmental spending—will drastically impact those on low or no income, especially disabled and elderly people.

I believe these changes will lead to increased debt, stress, anxiety, homelessness, and social inequality.

I strongly disagree with this decision, which risks causing long-term and ongoing hardship for the most vulnerable.
