Andy Burnham interview on benefits and welfare

The video discusses the recent welfare changes announced by Duncan Smith, aimed at getting more people on benefits back to work. The speaker criticizes these changes, highlighting the negative impact on disabled individuals and the anxiety it creates. The government's approach is described as dehumanizing and punitive, with public perception being largely unsupportive of the pressure placed on those with difficulties in working. The video concludes with a call for a supportive welfare system rather than one that punishes vulnerable people.
