Badenoch's Crusade: Reviewing Benefits for Youth
Update: 2025-12-09
Description
Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch criticizes young people for not taking entry-level jobs, citing her own experience at McDonalds. She announces a review of the benefits system to encourage more young people into employment, aiming to create an opportunity state where work is more financially rewarding than benefits. Badenoch plans to review situations where benefits pay more than work, including the household benefit cap, and examines the value of anxiety diagnoses in benefits. Meanwhile, Labours approach to reducing youth unemployment faces criticism due to concerns about job availability in sectors like bars and restaurants.
