YouTube Description
as posted by the channelWith over 120 Labour MPs set to rebel against the government on its flagship welfare reforms, Sky's Sophy Ridge asks senior Tory James Cartlidge if the Conservatives should vote in favour of them.
He describes the policy as a "knee-jerk way to save money", rather than "a big, thought-out comprehensive reform of the welfare system, which is actually what we need".
Cartlidge refused to say if the Tories actually support the reforms themselves.
