Labour bottles the benefits crackdown

After weeks of pitch-rolling, Labour has finally unveiled what are probably the Government's most controversial reforms since entering office. Liz Kendall, the Work and Pensions Secretary, announced a huge swathe of cuts to the welfare system, including billions of pounds worth of disability benefits. Kamal and Camilla talk through the changes and why they've riled up Labour backbenchers, then ask Helen Whately, the shadow work and pensions secretary, what she thinks. Plus, Kemi Badenoch gave a speech announcing her opposition to the UK's 2050 net zero target. She seems to be finding her voice, but will it cut through with the public?
