UK government to cut disability benefits for one million

Sir Keir Starmer has warned that President Putin is not serious about a ceasefire in Ukraine. He plans to urge world leaders to increase pressure on Moscow during a meeting with allies. The government is set to cut disability benefits for one million people as part of a welfare system overhaul. Changes to eligibility criteria are expected, with reforms to be announced next week. Concerns about spending cuts have been raised by a significant number of ministers. Meanwhile, the Royal College of GPs has shifted to a neutral stance on assisted dying, which has been welcomed by campaigners.
