In a ‘promise to Londoners’, mayor insists he will speak up over Government’s proposed reforms to benefits system
London Mayor Sadiq Khan pledged to challenge the government's proposed welfare reforms, emphasizing the need to maintain a "safety net" for those reliant on benefits like PIP. While supporting efforts to reduce welfare costs and increase employment, Khan stressed the importance of ensuring support for those who are unwell or lose their jobs, and distanced himself from claims of "overdiagnosis" of mental illnesses.
