Disabled Labour MP says welfare U-turn would create ‘unethical two-tier system’ | Politics | The Guardian
One of the curious things about #Welfarereformbill is that it is certified as a Money Bill. This process is decided by the Speaker and applies to any Bill which “contains only provisions dealing with national, but not local, taxation, public money or loans or their management”, and under the terms of the Parliament Act 1911 it means this bill can be waved through the House of Lords and can, if necessary, be passed without the assent of the upper House.

Rachael Maskell, the Labour MP for York Central, said: “I and many more cannot accept this backroom deal"
The Labour backbencher Alex Sobel told BBC Two’s Newsnight programme last night “Whether you acquire disability at birth, five years ago or tomorrow, it should be the same for everyone.”
He may still be in trouble

I have been looking into this. There has only been ONE OCCASION since 1901 when a majority government has lost a bill at the second reading.
Today is Friday.
The vote has not yet happened...
Irrespective of Starmer's offer to the Rebel MPs, Sky News reports, there is a WhatsApp group of "50 strong who could go higher over the weekend of MPs who could still kill the bill"
Oh dear
Happy #FollowBackFriday everyone. I didn’t oppose the tories cutting #DisabilityBenefits only to get a #Labour Government doing the same. Will follow back like-minded people. #bbcqt #DisabilityRebellion #TakingThePIP #WelfareReformBill #r4today #BBCBreakfast
LATEST. Thurs night.
#Starmer has offered Labour MPs “massive concessions” on his #welfarereformbill
Rebel MPs said they had been promised significant changes, which will cost the government several billion pounds over the next few years but would shore up the prime minister’s precarious authority.
The compromises are: applying the changes only to new claimants and further consultation on the most controversial cuts to disability benefits

Toby Perkins, the Labour MP for Chesterfield, added his name to the Labour Rebel list today and not before today because he says, "He was looking for signs on conciliation but they were not forthcoming"
