The same research that you are quoting also said there were 200,000 who were willing and able to work but prevented from doing so as they would lose their benefits as a result. Not that it matters as the government backed down under pressure from its back benchers.

Trying to frame that as tantamount to exterminating is catastrophising.

    The government hasn’t backed down. It passed the bill with a timing delay.
