REFORMING the Welfare State

from David Vance Podcast · host David Vance

Reform UK has unveiled plans to cut more than £50 billion from the working-age welfare bill by 2030. In this podcast, I look at how Britain’s welfare state grew from a safety net into a vast system of dependency, why health and disability claims have surged, and whether Reform’s proposals on PIP, citizenship, community work and getting people back into employment offer the radical reset Britain now needs.   Join my Substack for exclusive insights and stories—subscribe here.
