Cost of Living

Proceeding contribution from David Linden (Scottish National Party) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 5 July 2022. It occurred during Estimates day on Cost of Living.

The hon. Lady hits the nail on the head. She has rightly put the scale of the cuts into context, and there is a point for the Government to reflect on here. They will think, after making cuts, “Well, that’s no longer a problem for DWP,” but in many respects local authorities such as Glasgow City Council have to pick up the burden of the resulting destitution. My local social work office in

Easterhouse has to deal with the homelessness, the debt, and all the other issues that ensue from Government policies.
