I'm not dismissive of the fiscal challenge & there might be a case for freezing allowances but an overnight withdrawal will cause much hardship (& political problems). /5 — PolitiTweet.org

The uplift money could be better spent (it was a quick way of getting money out the door at a time of crisis) & I'd rather see it redeployed into higher work allowances and/or a lower taper rate. /4 — PolitiTweet.org

Also worth thinking if a more generous welfare system might help other policy objectives e.g. we need to put a price on carbon but that will probably be regressive. UC can ensure that the poorest are protected (rather than lots of complex exemptions). /6 — PolitiTweet.org
