Welfare
What the manifesto says: Promises to immediately scrap the bedroom tax, the punitive sanctions regime and reinstate housing benefit for the under-21s. A social security bill would repeal cuts in support to disabled people and adopt a new social model of disability, which means removing the barriers in society that disable people.
Analysis: Labour has promised to reverse the worst elements of Conservative social security policy from the past six years but the manifesto makes no attempt at serious reform of the welfare system.
