Liz Kendall refused to apologise after being criticised for misleading MPs four times in one parliamentary sitting by linking planned cuts to Personal Independence Payment (PIP) with support for disabled people’s employment.

PIP is a benefit available to disabled people regardless of their employment status.

Experts and disability advocates have expressed concern that cutting DWP PIP risks damaging the financial security and independence of thousands of claimants.
