The Tories are secretly pausing the disastrous roll out of Universal Credit in
Theresa May ’s constituency.
They are also delaying the benefits shake-up in the constituencies of a string of top Tories, including that of Work and Pensions Secretary David Gauke , under fire First Secretary of State Damian Green and UC’s architect Iain Duncan Smith.

an analysis of the new timetable for, comparing it to the previous rollout schedule, showed that Maidenhead, Ashford, Hemel Hempstead, Walthamstow and Redbridge Job Centres Plus will all now delay the roll out by three months.
These cover the bulk of the constituencies of Maidenhead, Ashford, South West Hertfordshire and Chingford and Woodford Green.
Only South Oxhey, a small, working class and generally Labour-voting area of David Gauke’s constituency will continue to have Universal Credit imposed on time.
The other Job Centre Plus in the London Borough of Waltham Forest, which serves Labour seats rather than Iain Duncan Smith’s seat, will implement UC earlier.

Jeremy Corbyn stretches Labour lead over Tories to largest gap for five months according to only pollster to call Election right
The poll by Survation, which was the only company to accurately forecast June’s General Election result, puts Labour on 45 per cent, with the Conservatives trailing on 37 per cent

Now just come out against Brexit Jeremy, and it's in the bag.

I'm surprised the police have not already been called in on previous cases of asset-stripping and other wickedness.""Last week Wakefield city council backed a motion asking that the trust be allowed to return to local authority control, arguing that the police should investigate the trust’s finances. Councillors said the trust should not be permitted to dissolve until an investigation had taken place and the results made public.
“This scandal could happen again if we don’t learn the lessons,” said Rayner. “The Tories have abandoned proper oversight of schools, and we now have a system that is fragmented and unaccountable.”
The Tories rejected Labour’s proposed amendments to the Education Act in 2015 that would have given Ofsted the power to conduct full inspections of trusts as well as their schools.""
Who is responsible for this neglect ?

"Brexit supporters list demands for 'divorce bill' talks"
Seeing as evidence suggests most Conservative MPs, (not least T.May & David Davis) & many Labour have accepted Brexit, Isn't it about time the ones pushing for non deal were referred to more accurately as "Deal Saboteurs" or 'Brexit Extremists' instead of as just 'Leading Brexit Supporters'?
