Duncan Smith cagey on next victims of Tory cuts
THE Tories won’t tell voters who will be the latest to fall victim to their next assault on welfare spending, Work and Pensions Secretary Iain Duncan Smith admitted yesterday.
Documents leaked from his department show cuts to disability benefit and compensation for injured workers are among policies being considered in order to cut £12 billion from the welfare budget.
But Mr Duncan Smith revealed the Tories may not think it “relevant” to explain where the cuts will be made before the general election.
