The Labour Party needs to stop bullying people and start investing what we know works to support people into employment.
🧵 Yesterday, the work and pensions secretary Liz Kendall announced reforms to reduce economic inactivity and boost employment. The govt plans to transform Job Centres into a genuine employment service, that properly supports people to get back into work. Here's our take ⬇ 1/8.

The govt need to put £8bn into social care immediately and then begin to reform the service and its long term funding based in the veiws of those who use the service, those who care for them and those who work in it. But they will not do this.
