The grand daughter of trade unionist Jimmy Reid has defended her party's planned benefits reforms.
Labour MP Joani Reid, granddaughter of Jimmy Reid, defends her party's planned welfare reforms, stating Labour will not demolish the welfare state but aims to renew it by controlling costs and focusing on helping those who can work find opportunities, while ensuring support for those who genuinely need it. She believes the current system is broken, leading to rising costs and trapping people in dependence, necessitating reforms based on Labour's principles of solidarity, fairness, and social justice.
